obtuso. Capsula 7 mm. longa, linearis, angusta. Semina ellipsoidea-ovoidea, 
lactea.

This is allied to V. arcuata, Blume, a little known plant from Java, but it is quite 
glabrous and the leaves are not serrate. The stipules are glabrous, with very few teeth 
at the base.

Camps IX to XI, 5500 to 8300 ft. 7 
A dwarfed, much reduced form at Camp XIII. 
Flowers white with a violet centre. 
Allied to V. Patrinii, but the bases of the leaves are not cuneate and decurrent on 
the petiole, the spur is longer, and the capsule is not narrow, as in that species.

ovata, obtusa, imbricata, in dorso rugosa. Petala 4, lanceolata, obtusa, longiora 
1 mm. longa. Staminodia 16, linearia, acuminata, alba, in una serie, furcata. 
Stamina 4, antheris ellipticis mucronatis sessilibus. Ovarium glabrum, eonicum, 
obtuse triquetrum, uniloculare, placentis 3 parietalibus. Stylus acuminatus,

This differs from S. Henningsiana, Schum., in its much smaller size, obovate leaves, 
much smaller flowers, and acuminate style with very small stigmas.
