As E. capense Linn. included a Cape plant collected by Oldenland, 
I have not followed Radlkofer and other authors in adopting the name 
Eranthemum Linn. for this genus.

11. STROBILANTHES Blume. 
Lindau, in Engl. u. Prantl. IV, 3b, p. 303 splits this into 4 genera 
thus : 
Rippen - pollen, selten  stachel - pollen 
(Strobilanthee) : 
Pollen rund, stacheling . . 40. Pseudostenosiphonium. 
Pollen etwas dreikantig mit undeut- 
lichen Langsrippen und auf diesen 
Stacheln . : , . 41. Lamiacanthus. 
Typischer Rippen- pollen ; ; . 42. Strobilanthes. 
Waben-pollen, seltener glatter oder 
stachel-pollen (Ruelliee) . : . 50. Dischistocalyx. 
He refers Strobilanthes viscosus T. And., S. nigrescens T. And., 
S. rhamnifolius T. And., S. Gardnerianus T. And. and S. zeylanicus 
T. And. to his Pseudostenostphonium. 
Clarke in Fyson, Flora of the Nilghiri and Pulney Hill-Tops p. 311, 
proposes the following classification : 
1. ENDOPOGON Nees; stamens two only; pollen grains ellipsoid 
with 12-20 ribs. Strobilanthus stenodon Clarke. 
2. GUTZLAFFIA Hance; stamens two only; pollen grains with 
tubercles or spines. S. viscosus T. And., S. exareolatus Clarke, 
S. nigrescens T. And., S. rhamnifolius T. And. and S. deflexus T. And. 
3. ACANTHOPALE Clerke; stamens 4; pollen grains with spines or 
prickles. S. lanceolatus Nees, S. Arnottianus Nees, S. exsertus 
Clarke, S. Hookert Nees, S. laxus T. And. 
4. STROBILANTHES Blume; stamens 4; pollen grains ellipsoid with 
12-20 longitudinal ribs. The remaining species. 
But Burkill and Clarke, in Fl. Trop. Afr. V, p. 2, object to giving 
the ‘‘ pollen-characters a predominating value ’’ and on p. 62, while 
keeping up Acanthopale Clarke and referring Pseudostenosiphonium 
Gardnerianum Lindau to it, they admit its artificiality. Strobilanthes 
is therefore retained in its widest sense.
