ALABASTRA DIVERSA 153 



1"5 mm. long. Stipulge circa 4 mm. long. Fasciculi plerique 

 3-4-floii, in toto 2-5 cm. long. ; pedunculus saepius 1-1-5 cm. long. ; 

 pedicelli + 5 mm. Ovarium 2 mm. long., calyx 1-5 mm. Corollas 

 tubus 4'5 mm. long., basi 3 mm., ore 4 mm. diam. ; lobi 5 mm. 

 long. Antherae oblongge, acutae, 2-5 mm. long. Stylus aegre 

 8 mm. long. ; stigma 1'25 x 1'25 mm. 



This has the appearance of F. obovata N. E. Br., but is quite 

 different in the flower. The affinity is with F. glaberrivia Schweiuf.

Differs from F. stenophylla Welw., inter alia in habit, usually 

 ternate leaves, and shape of corolla-tube. 



Kassner's no. 2350, from Kitimbo, Congo Free State, seems 

 from the description to be F. arenicola K. Schum. & K. Krause 

 (Engler, Jahrb. xxxix. p. 544), and the Museum spec-mens have 

 been provisionally so named.
