the tube of the corolla a little longer than usual : in this we are confirmed by 
the circumstance that the only species with tomentose leaves enumerated by 
Dr Wallich (by whom it was transmitted), both in the Flora Indica and in 
his List, are W. cinerea and exserta. 
1239. (2) W. Notoniana (Wall.:) arboreous, with the young shoots hir- 
sute: leaves petioled, oblong, slightly tapering at both ends; upper side gla- 
brous, under somewhat glaucous, more or less minutely pubescent, often 
nearly quite glabrous except on the nerves and veins: stipules triangular- 
ovate, hirsute at the base; the upper part glabrous, recurved: branches of 
the panicle hirsute, somewhat erect: flowers crowded and forming interrupt- 
ed spikes: calyx hoary, the teeth triangular, acuminated: corolla glabrous, 
6-8 times longer than the limb of the calyx ; tube widened at the mouth ; 
divisions of the limb oval, obtuse, recurved: anthers nearly sessile: capsule 
sprinkled with short hairs.—Wall.! L. n. 6273; Wight! cat. n. 1285.—We-

We have before us a specimen from Nundydroog in Mysore exactly agree- 
ing with Roth's description ; but although the panicle be occasionally con- 
tracted into an ovate thryse not exceeding an inch and half in length, it is 
much larger when the specimens are fine and in fruit, being then often 6 or 8 ` 
inches long. The leaves vary considerably in pubescence, and frequently 
form a verticil of three towards the extremities of the vigorous flower-bearing 
branches. From the imperfect character given of W. densiflora from Java, 
we scarcely know whether it be the same or not as this species. 
-* 1240. (3) W. bicuspidata (W. & A.:) arboreous: young branches hir- 
sutely pubescent : gpyes petioled, obovate, bluntly pointed, cuneate at the 
base, pubescent on the nerves on the under side, but otherwise glabrous: 
stipules broadly triangular at the base, with a 2-cleft point, hirsute except 
along the margins : petioles and spreading branches of the lax panicle densely 
pubescent: flowers solitary or in threes, approximated but not crowded: 
calyx glabrous ; teeth ovate: corolla glabrous, 6-8 times longer than the limb 
of the calyx ; limb small: anthers nearly sessile : capsule glabrous. ' 1 
The specimen before us is from Ceylon, but it is probably also found in 
the southern districts of the Peninsula. 
1241. (4) W. Heyneana (Wall.:) young branches, petioles, and branches 
of the panicle, covered with a very minute somewhat velvetty pubescence : 
leaves oblong, tapering at both ends, glabrous on both sides: stipules trian- 
gular, cuspidate, entire, glabrous, slightly hairy on the margin: panicle some- _ 
what contracted : flowers solitary or in threes, approximated but not crowd- 
ed: calyx glabrous ; teeth minute, roundish: corolla glabrous, 6-8 times long- 
er than the limb of the calyx: anthers nearly sessile: capsule glabrous.—

r character is taken from a specimen from Dr Wallich in Dr Hooker's 
herbarium; we can scarcely point out how it differs from W. glabrata, DC.
