Common about Little Hong-Kong, flowering in August or Septem- 
ber, but not found on the Victoria side of the island. It is also in 
Parkes's Chinese collection, and in Vachell’s collection from Macao and 
the adjacent islands. Fortune gathered another new species,* which 
at first sight closely resembles this one, but has the pedicels three or 
four times the length of the calyx, and very different keel-petals, 
wings, and pod. ; 4
