My Bengal specimens vary from 3 inches to 3 feet high. The largest leaves have the blade nearly 6 inches long by 3 broad, 
‘and also very large racemes and flowers. Some specimens are not quite glabrous. I do not see from the description that Rhyncoglos- 
sum seabrum Dalzell (vid. Walp. Annal TIL p. 98) or Rhyncoglossum Zeylanicum Hook. (vid. Walp. Rep. VI. p. 522) differs.
