The two sheets from which the flowering plant is described were 
found under a cover in the Calcutta Herbarium inscribed with 
the above name in Kurz’s handwriting. They represent the type 
of the species. Both were lent to Kew to compare with Burkill’s 
fruiting specimen with which they agree. The opportunity is 
taken of publishing Kurz’s MS. name. One of the sheets is 
returned to Calcutta, the other by Lt.-Col. A. T. Gage’s courtesy 
is retained in the Kew Herbarium.
