This plant brought me from Hango I first saw 
in the collection, now in the possession of Mr. 
Brown, made in Kunawur by R. Inglis, Esq., which 
that gentleman -allowed me to look through on his 
arrival at Saharunpore. I was at first inclined to 
consider it a new species, and named it after the dis- 
coverer, but it appears to be a variety of A. estivalis, 
and therefore closely allied to A. parviflora of Fis- 
cher, found by him in the south of Siberia.
