That portion of Wall. Cat. 643 G D, which is marked as baring been collected by 

 Hamilton at Goalpara, in Eastern Bengal, close to Assam, is Hyalostemma. "We 

 have therefore omitted that locality, as the tree does not appear to occur on the east 

 of the Ganges, but to be confined to the drier regions of Behar, and the eastern part 

 of the Madras Peninsula. It remains, however, to be determined whether or not the 

 species be not also a native of similar climates in the drier parts of Ava, if, as is pro- 

 bable, the last species consist of the leaves of this species with the flowers of some 

 other (probably G. Simiarwn). ™
