This species is allied both to S. Ridleyz, King & Gamble, and 
to S. Schmidtii, Gilg. It differs from both in the pte A pubes- 
cent stem and leat nerves and in the external lines of hairs on 
the eieeila. These lines of hairs run down the outside of the 
tube from the sutures between the corolla lobes, and mark out 
the portions of the tube belonging to each corolla lobe.
