Anthere parve. | Ovarium multiloculare. 
Camps XIII to XIV, 10,500 to 12,500 ft. 
Distinguished from S. Vannouhuysii, J. J. Smith, its nearest ally, by the differently

bracteole ovato-rotundate uti sepala conspicue parallele venosa prsesertim in 
alabastris. Flores + 5"7 mm. longi. Corolle extus glabre tubus 3:2 mm. longus; 
lobi lanceolati, 2 mm. longi, intus loborum basin versus dense barbate. Anthere 
brevissimse. Ovarium globosum cum stylo truncato 2:3 mm. longum, a disci lobis 
ad dimidium amplexum, multiloculare. 
Camps XI to XIV, 8300 to 12,500 ft. 
Near S. carstensensis, Wernham (vide supra), but distinguished by the conspicuously- 
veined bracts, the relatively shorter corolla-lobes, and the rather larger leaves. 
STYPHELIA VANDEWATERI, Wernham, sp. nov. 
Fruticulus ramosus; ramuli novelli minute puberuli. Folia rigide coriacea, primo 
adscendentia, demum patentia, oblongo-laneeolata, apice subaeuta, 7-10 mm. longa, 
+ 2 mm. lata, plurinervia, supra minute striata, subnitida, subtus lineatim minu- 
tissime cano-pulverulenta, apicem versus minute ciliolata, demum convexissima, 
pilis paucis hic inde conspersa; petiolus brevissimus, sine lente vix manifestus. 
Inflorescentie + terminales nutantes; bracteze rotundatz, concave. Flores sessiles, 
vix 3 mm. longi. Sepala ovata, rotundata, ciliolata. Corolla extus glabra, intus 
plus minus uniformiter eano-hirsuta ; tubus lobos lanceolatos subacutos excedens. 
Fructus 4-locularis, 27 mm. in diametro. 
Camps XII to XIV, 11,000 to 12,500 ft.
