Very near P. striata, which, however, seems to differ in having re- 
curved peduncles and glabrous flowers. Leaves 1-1} inch long; 3-1 
lin. broad. 7

It resembles somewhat P. articulata in the leaves, which are 1-14 
inch long, 3-4 lin. broad, but differs in the pubescence, especially 
of the ovary. Racemes 4—1 inch long; their upper leaves 4-6 lin., 
the lower ones 1-2 lin., and the calyx 4—5 lin. long.

Jackson.—P. nutans, A. Cunningham! MSS. (non R. Br.) 
Though very closely approaching P. nutans, R. Br., it certainly differs 
from it in having the leaves more acuminate, the pedicels shorter 
than the calyx (3 lin. long), and the sepals terminating in a whitish, 
subulate point 1 line long (as in P. acerosa), which at last becomes — 
spreading. ET.
