The writer has seen only two sheets of P. -pilifera — the type 

 specimen in the Wallichian herbariimni and one collected by Collett 

 {P. lanugi)iosa, Coll. et Hemsl., Journ. Linn. Soc, xxviii. p. 67, non 

 Wall.). Both are fruiting specimens and Kerr's specimens — also in 

 fruit — differ from the type in the rather narrower more parallel- 

 sided leaves, the somewhat larger fruit crowned by the suberect 

 not reflexed sepals.
