Allied apparently to fF. exserta, De Caud., and perhaps also^. Luzo- 

 niensis, De Cand., but the descriptions in the ' Prodromus ' are insuffi- 

 cient for the determination of the species. In the interruptedly fascicu- 

 late arrangement of the flowers, this plant approaches W. Notoniana, 

 Wall. In some of the specimens seen by Mr. Sampson the panicles 

 were a foot in length and proportionally broad.
