VEGETATION OF HONG KONG. 491 
Pterostigma grandiflorum Benth. 
Bonnaya verbenefolia. Spreng.—Benth. Scroph. Ind. 33. 
Mitrasacme capillaris Wall. in Roxb. Fl. Ind. 1.420? A 
single specimen with elongated somewhat dichotomous in- 
florescence. 
Utricularia recurva Lour. Fl. Cochinch. 26? Apparently 
the same as U. racemosa Wall. 
Utricularia bifida Linn. 
Barleria cristata Linn. 
Rostellaria procumbens Nees. 
Amaranthus oleraceus Linn. 
Polygonum orientale Linn.—Meisn. in Wall. Pl. As. Rar. 
3. 54. var? discolor; caule glabriusculo, foliis lanceolatis v. 
ovato-lanceolatis parce pilosis subtus lana tenui albidis, spicis 
erectis brevibus, floribus confertis. "This has a very different 
aspect from the common P. orientale, but if P. pilosum Roxb. 
be but a form of that species, this one also must be included 
in it. The structure of the flower is the same as in the 
common P. orientale. 
Polygonum Chinense Linn. Meisn. l. c. 60. 
Daphne indica Linn. 
Cansjera lanceolata (sp. n.); foliis brevissime petiolatis lato- 
lanceolatis acuminatis margine undulato-crispis, staminodiis 
anguste lanceolatis.—Folia angustiora et longiora quam in 
C. Rheedii. Flores ejuisdem EE EH at minus inflati. 
Staminodia duplo longiora. Ramuli fere glabri, novelli striati, 
nec etiam juniores teretes tomentosi ut in C. Rheedii obser- 
vantur, cui etiam staminodia brevia, lato obovato-truncata. 
Cassytha filiformis Linn. 
Glochidion macrophyllum (sp. n.), glabrum, foliis breviter 
petiolatis ovali-ellipticis brevissime acuminatis coriaceis supra 
nitidis, pedunculis fcemineis petiolum vix cquantibus, fructu 
7-8 loculari pulveraceo-puberulo. —The leaves are four or five 
inches long and full two in breadth. The fruit is like that A 
Sinicum, but rather larger, consisting usually of 7 or 
cocci and apparently red. I have not seen the flowers. 
Melanthera cernua, Decaisne, Herb. Timor. 155.
