194 THE .TOUJ{N,\.L OF BOTANY 



Diifers from J. f/lahra Keen, entirely in foliage and corolla. In 

 foliage it is very like the Philippine ])lant distributed as *' J'wsi'/cm 

 glahra Keen, var." (No. 15231, coll. M. Ramos) which can hardly be 

 conspecific with KcBnig's plant, but the flowers of this are quite 

 different from those of J. platy])liylla. 



This might easily be taken for a Dianfhera, but the spur to the 

 lower cell of tlie anther although small and weak is unmistiikable. 



White's No. ^\^ from Dilava, a specimen in fruit only, is evidently 

 to be associated with this ; indeed the capsule (and seeds) have been 

 described from it.

 dilatato ; limbus breviter 2-labiatus, labio antico 3-lobo lobo inter- 

 medio majore in a^stivatione extimo labio postico integro. Stamina 

 4, infra medium tubum inserta ; filamenta exserta ; antherce basi 

 nmticjB, staminum anticorum 2-loculares, staminum posticorum 

 1-loculares. Follinis grana iis GrajHophylli similia. Discus 

 cupularis. Stylus filiformis, apice obtusus. Ovula quove in loculo 2. 

 Frutex erectus, glaber. Folia opposita, magna. Flores in pani- 

 culam sat elongatam anguste thyrsoideam ample bracteatam digesti. 



Huleniacauthus Whitei, sp. unica. Foliis petiolatis lanceo- 

 lato-ellipticis apicem versus acuminatis apice obtusiusculis deorsum 

 in continuationem late petioliformem extenuatis margine leviter 

 undulatis papyraceis pallide nitidis ; j^anicula foliis certe brevioribus 

 axi ad nodos tumido ; hracteis foliaceis ovatis obtusis verisimiliter 

 mox dehiscentibus ; pedicellis gracilibus calyce longioribus ; calycis 

 seo-mentis suborbicularibus margine ciliolatis ; corollce labio postico 

 ovato-oblongo obtusissimo antici lobis ovatis obtusis lateralibus quam 

 intermedium minoribus;^7«we«//s complanatis apicem versus tiliformi- 

 bus antheris oblongis obtusis ; ovario ovoideo glabro ; stylo exserto. 



Deva Deva ; C. T. White, 530. The same plant was collected 

 by Mrs. H. F. Schlencker at Boku, and White's 388 from Sogere, a 

 very poor specimen — all but perished, in fact — evidently belongs here. 



Folia 30-35 cm. long,, excluso petiolo 3 cm. long., juxta medium 

 7-10 cm. lat. ; costa? laterales utrinque circa 10, aperte arcuatae inter- 

 jectis pluribus aliis valoris minoris ; rete laxum, parum perspicuum. 

 Inflorescentia spec, imici nobis obvii 12 cm. long., 2 cm. lat. : hujiis 

 internodia inferne 3 mm., superne 6-7 mm. crass. Bractese jimiores 

 ±l"5xl cm., summse circa 30x7 mm. Pedicelli arrecti, circa 

 1 cm. long. Calyx 3*5 mm. long. ; lobi 3 X 2-5 mm. Corolla rubro- 

 aurantiaca, in toto circa 3 cm. long. ; tubus 23 mm. long., paullo 

 supra basin 3 mm., ipso sub limbo 7 mm. lat. ; labium posticum 5 mm. 

 long., postici lobi laterales 5-5 mm. long. Filamenta ex corolla 

 usque 12 mm. exserta ; antherse 3 mm. long. Discus vix 1 mm. alt. 

 Ovarium 2 mm., stylus fere 4. cm. long. Capsula baud visa. 



A remarkable plant having obvious affinities with Grajytophyllum : 

 the broad calyx-segments, recalling those of the American genera 

 Fravaisia and Trichanthera, and the presence of the hinder pair of 

 (unilocular) stamens are the chief peculiarities.
