This species may perhaps be Blume's Appendicula anceps. but his characters are 

 too short and have little reference to the llowers to admii of his species being de- 

 termined wiih any saiisfaction. I have thereloie dedicated it lo Mr. Lewes, Assis- 

 tegt Resident , Penang, who introduced ii with oiher plani into ihis garden , where 

 ii flowered, March last. It appears to thrive in pois with leaf soil mixed with 

 hroken pots.
