Distrib. N.E. New Guinea. 
A scrambler with yellow flowers, striped with dark veins, occurring 
massed in the open. Evidently an extremely variable plant in the shape 
of the leaves and extent of the tomentum on the peduncle, corolla, and ovary. 
The above specimens are glabrous, the leaves broadly ovate and irregularly 
dentate, a character also shown in the type-specimen (Schlechter, 14446, 
Herb. Kew.). The corolla is sparsely pilose on the outer surface and barbate 
on the veins to the base of the lobes on the inner ; the style is also markedly 
shorter than in the type.
