COLLECTED IN DUTCH NEW GUINEA. 135 
L. incurva, D. Don (i.e. L. hyalina, Nees), but the shorter spikes and the different and 
nearly glabrous bracts, bracteoles and calyces afford an easy means of distinguishing 
the present species. 
GRAPTOPHYLLUM PUBIFLORUM, S. Moore, sp. nov. 
Frutex verisimiliter. Rami aliquanto compressi, ad nodos tumidi, puberuli, mox 
glabri. Folia ampla, elliptica, longiuscule necnon latiuscule cuspidato-acuminata, 
obtusa, basi in petiolum sensim desinentia, membranacea, utrinque glabra, usque 
ad 20x 6:5-8 cm., summum vero circa 15X4 cm. Flores in racemos sat longos 
terminales vel ex axillis summis oriundos ita pseudothyrsum pubescentem summum 
18 em. longum, sed interdum breviorem efficientes digesti. Bractee bracteoleeque 
lineari-subulatze, pubescentes, ille + 4 mm., hæ 2-3 mm. longse. Calycis segmenta 
inter sese subzequalia, lineari-oblonga, acuta vel breviter acuminata, pubescentia, 
8x1-1:25 mm. Corolla extus (preesertim basin versus) glanduloso-pubescens ; tubus 
in dimidio superiore amplificatus neenon parum incurvus, postice aliquantulum ` 
incrassatus, 34 mm. longus; lobi postici ceteris similes, nisi paullo minores, 
8x45 mm. Anthere breviter exserte, sagittate, apice acute. Staminodia 
abbreviata, clavata. Ovarium anguste ovoideo-oblongum, glabrum, 2:5 mm. longum. 
Stylus inclusus, pilosus, ovario equilongus. 
Camps I to III, 500 to 2500 ft. 
Leaves dark olive-green above when dry and bright green below; petioles broad, 
running indistinguishably into the base of the leaf, 1-2 cm. long. Corollas white 
spotted with mauve. Filaments inserted just below the mouth of the corolla, glabrous, 
$ mm. long, with anthers half that length. 
A rather unsatisfactory specimen at Kew, collected by Sir W. MacGregor on Mount 
Seratehley, may perhaps be conspecific with this, though its leaves are considerably 
smaller. The chief points about G. pubiflorum are the large leaves and the hairy 
corollas with short lobes, only a little unlike each other. 
Runeia Krossir, S. Moore, sp. nov. 
Caulis ascendens, superne sparsim ramosus, ad nodos tumidulus, tetragonus, puberulus 
dein glabrescens. Folia subsessilia, apicem versus breviter attenuata, apice ipso 
obtusa, basi late rotundata, pergamacea, utrinque pilis strigillosis appressis sparsim 
obtecta necnon perspicue creberrimeque cystolithigera, sepissime 2-4X1-2:5 em. 
Spice cylindrice, tandem satis elongate, 4x15 cm., caulem vel ramulos breves 
vel brevissimos terminantes. Bractee pro rata majuscule, orbiculares, 3-nerves, 
late albo-marginatee, dorso sparsim appresse breviterque hispidule, margine ciliate, 
810x6-7:5 mm. Bracteole bracteis minores, ovato-rotundatee, obtusissimee, late 
membranaces, margine ciliate, 6x 4 mm. Calycis segmenta 5, bracteolis paullo 
breviora, lineari-lanceolata, pilosa, 5'5 mm. longa. Corolle tubus calyci sub- 
æquilongus, leviter urceolaris, compressus, 5 mm. longus; labium anticum 
amplissimum, 10x10 mm., breviter 3-lobum, quam posticum apice bifidum 
5x45 mm. multo majus. Antherarum loculus superior muticus, inferior breviter
