Crescit in Himalaiæ orientalis regione tropica. Colitur in h. Calcut- 
tensi; an etin caldariis nostris occurrat? Antea folia tantum et andro- 
phylla videram, nune mihi suppetit conus ex horto Calcuttensi missus 
masculinus, eylindrieus, versus basin et apicem paullo angustatus, 
4 1 pede paullo longior, medio 5 pollicibus paullo crassior, peduncu- 
latus, basi androphyllis abortivis sterilibus brevibus varie difformibus 
instructus, totus in sicco ex indumenti et locellorum colore ochrascens; - 
androphylla patentia, apicibus contigua, multo majora et crassiora quam 
in C. sphærica et circinali, forma inter utramque fere intermedia, in 
diversa coni altitudine diversa, infima appendice sterili breviore munita; 
medii coni 4 $ poll., in suprema et ima ejus parte 1 poll. longa, vertice 
6 lin. lata, cuneiformia, sed corpore ipso (an exsiccatione?) versus 
paginam superiorem superiorem canaliculatim revoluto fere cylindrica 
adparent, in pagina inferiore hanc ob rem convexo-rotunda quasi semi- 
cylindrica, usque fere ad basin locellifera et versus ares locelliferze 
apicem costa mediana spuria obtusa munita; unde area apice quasi 
biloba, coste que bifida ramulo singulo utrinque versus angulum cor- 
poris fere lobuliformem continuato; locelli oblongo-obovoidei usque ad 
` basin dehiscentes ochracei, pilis circumpositis $ longiores ; corporis lo- 
celliferi pagina superior glabra lævis, costa spuria percursa, in supremis 
et imis androphyllis non convoluta, plana leviterve concava; pars ste- 
rilis androphyllorum figura varia, constanter ochraceo-tomentosa præ- 
sertim in facie inferiore; in infimis vertice quasi truncata et latere utroque 
in angulum protracta, in convolutis sinu perpendiculari rectangulari 
(veluti sectio transversa corporis complicati) interjecto, e cujus angulo 
procedit directione erecta processus subuliformis spinulosus (in nostris 
plerisque diffraetus), 4-10 lin. longus, angustus uti in C. sphærica (an- 
gustior quam in icone C. Zwmphii Rumphiana), dorso pubescenti- 
tomentellus uti in C. circinali, apice glaber, coni superficiei quasi 
aceumbens. Androphylla superiora pedententim breviora latiora, magis
