Hab. Unyoro, Sept., and Madi, Dec. 1862, Col. Grant! 
[Found in flower during September in Unyoro, and again in Madi (December), where it was 
climbing up trees and round village-fences. Stem tough, and four angles just observable. The flower- 
stalks of one variety do not grow from the leaf-axils, but above them. The leaves are of a deep 
green colour, glossy, with their ribs prominent behind. Calyx at first green ; but when the seed begins 
to form, it becomes deep purple. Тһе white petals are pink inside at their bases. Pistil shorter than the 
long stamina, The seed-vessel (four-celled) is frequently eaten away, but is generally covered for half its 
length with a black shining dust, and the other half has a more solid and orange-yellow dust. Seeds pre- 
served.—J. А. G.J
