This is an ally of what I take to be the D. lanceolata, C. B. Clarke, of Borneo; but it 
has very much shorter flowers, not tubular and dilated at the mouth, but bell-shaped.

reminding one of those of a Pyrola.

Dry woods, Tahan Valley. 
l do not know any species closely allied to this. 1% is a pretty little plant, though 
the Шас bells are small. Тһе inflorescence seems to arise from the middle of the 
petiole, but in reality what appears to be the base of the petiole is a short branch from 
which the leaf also springs.
