To the above I may add what appears to be another species, but of which 
I have received but one specimen, the male plant, with the buds not expanded. 
This has the petals in æstivation nearly as described in S. viridiflora, and 
slightly convolute: these seem to be white and glabrous on their inner sur- 
face, but covered on the back with numerous black, prominent glands. The 
rachis of the raceme and the pedicels are scabrous from the presence of short 
rigid hairs, often tipped by a gland. "The leaves are oval-lanceolate and on 
longish petioles. With this a fructiferous specimen in Herb. Wight (appa- 
rently selected to correspond with Wall. L., No. 2299 B, when the latter was 
sent by him to Dr. Wallich) agrees in the pedicels being so long as to form 
a distinet raceme. Other specimens in my own herbarium, also from Dr. 
Wight, exhibit the same conspicuous pedicels (13 to 2 lines long), but others 
have short ones (scarcely half a line long) as in Wall. L., No. 2299 B, in 
the Indian herbarium of the Society. At that time Dr. Wight probably con- 
sidered all these fructiferous specimens as one species; and their foliage and ij 
general aspect differ in no respect. J incline however to think that there may | 
be two, and that the specimens with longish pedicels, which Dr. Wight has 
again found at Quilon, ought to be referred to S. atro-punctata. Dr. Wallich 
describes the pedicels of S. aurantiaca as being “ very short :” and in the 
Indian herbarium of the Society, Wall. L., No. 2299 A, the pedicels are
