Camps XI to XII, 8300 to 11,000 ft. 
Allied to R. Carringtonie, F. Muell., but distinct in the narrower and shorter tube of 
the corolla, which is glabrous within, and the broader limb, as well as the glabrous 
filaments. 
RHODODENDRON CALCEOLARIOIDES, Wernham, sp. nov. 
Frutex glaber. Folia verticillata, subcoriacea, anguste elliptica, utrinque subacuta, 
breviter acuminata, 5°5-6°5 em. x 2-27 cm., margine vix revoluto; vene supra 
impresse, centralis subtus prominens, secundarie utrinque ca. 8, prominule ;

4/5 cm. longi vel longior; bracteole setacesze, 6-8 mm. longse. Corolla extus glabra, 
nonnunquam obscure lepidota; tubus latiusculus, 7-8 mm. longus; lobi obovati, 
ad ca. 1 em. longi, 7 mm. lati. Filamenta desuper sparse pubescentia. Ovarium 
minute pubescens, 5 mm. longum. Stylus ad 9 mm. longus. 
Camps VI a, IX, and X, 3100 to 6700 ft. 
This species is nearly related to R. glabrifilwm, J. J. Smith, differing therefrom 
principally in its much shorter and stouter corolla-tube. It also has affinities with 
AR. Vonrümeri, Koorders, but the flowers are smaller and the corolla-tube is relatively 
longer. 
RHODODENDRON CALLICHILIOIDES, Wernham, sp. nov. 
Frutex verisimiliter repens, glaber. Folia verticillata, coriacea, lanceolata vel ovata, 
longe acuminata, acuta, basi rotundata, 9-15 em. x 2:5-4 cm., utrinque glaberrima, 
margine revoluto; vene nisi centralis subtus prominens vix manifesta; petiolus 
ad 1 em. longus, validus, supra applanatus. Flores rosei, majusculi; pedicelli 
tenues, ad 3:5-4 em. longi, glabri, leeves. Corolla subinfundibularis, extus glabra ; 
tubus 1:6 em. longus, basi lobatus, in ore ad 1°5 em. latus; lobi obovati, apice. 
rotundati, ad 9:5 cm. longi x 1:5 em. lati. Filamenta desuper conspieue argenteo- 
villosa. Ovarium argenteo-pubescens, 6'5 mm. longum, — subzequans. 
Camps III to VI a, 2500 to 3100 ft. 
Near R. Wentianum, Koorders, differing especially in the much longer corolla- 
tube. Still more closely related, apparently, to the recently-described R. MOS 
J. J. Smith; but our species has much smaller flowers.
