(praeter costas villosas) fulvo- vel canescenti-pubescentibus ; pedunculis 

 3 _ 5-floris ; calyce craterifonni subtequaliter breviter 4 - 5-lobo corolla 

 breviore, lobis late deltoideis. — Mountains of Oahu. Except for the 

 calyx (which is ampliate in the manner of C. cordifolia, but crateri- 

 form or cyathiform rather than rotate, and much less lobed), and the 

 soft fulvous down of the lower surface of the leaves, this might be taken 

 for a variety of the next species. 



Cyrtandra triflora (Gaud.) : glabrata vel primum ferrugineo- 

 hirsuta ; foliis oblongis seu ellipticis utrinque acutis vel acuminatis 

 serrulatis serratisve utrinque viridibus ; pedunculis brevibus 2-5- 

 floris ; calyce subaequaliter 5-fido cylindraceo, lobis lato-lanceolatis 

 corolla brevioribus. 



Var. a. Gaudichaudi : ramis foliisque prteter costam venasque 

 paginae inferioris ferrugineo-pubescentes glabris ; calycis lobis tubo 

 aequilongis. — Oahu, Hawaii. 



Var. ^3. ARGUTA : ramulis cum inflorescentia ferrugineo-hirsutis ; 

 foliis majoribus ovalibus caudato-acuminatis crebre argutissime serratis 

 hirsutulis ; calycis (etiam fructiferi hirsuti) lobis tubo brevioribus. — 

 Hawaii, in mountain forest. 



Var. y. LTSIOSEPALA : calyce fere 5-partito ; c£et. var. /3. — Ha- 

 waii, in deep forest. 



Cyrtandra grandiflora (Gaud.) : foliis oblongis seu ovatis 

 utrinque acuminatis subintegerrimis glabratis subtus pallidis puberu- 

 lis, costa venis petioloque pube brevissima ferrugineis ; pedunculo 1 - 

 2-floro bracteis foliaceis ; calyce cylindrico breviter 5-lobo hinc sjepe 

 profundius fisso corolla glabra paullo breviore. — Oahu. Calyx, when 

 well developed, an inch long ; teeth three lines long. To this probably 

 belong C. Endlicheriana, Nees, and C RucJdana, Meyen and Walpers. 

 Cyrtandra paludosa (Gaud.) : " sufFruticosa," glabra ; foliis 

 oblongis sublanceolatisve utrinque acuminatis serratis subtus pallidis ; 

 pedunculis brevissimis nudis 1 - 5-floris ; calyce cylindraceo-campa- 

 nulato incequaliter 5-fido, lobis triangulari-acuminatis, anticis tubo 

 aequilongis ; corolla glabra ; fructu olivaeformi. — This is most related 

 to C. grandiflora, but is glabrous in the adult state, only the nascent 

 leaves, &c. feiTugineous-pubescent. 



Cyrtandra Lessoniana (Gaud.) : foliis oblongis utrinque saspius 

 acuminatis denticulatis supra hirsutulis subtus cum ramis pedunculis- 

 que pube adpressa ferruginea sericeis ; pedunculis elongatis 1 - 3-floi'is ; 

 bracteis lanceolatis ; calyce 5 - 6-partito ; lobis ovatis seu ovato-lanceo-
