442 LXXX. CAMPANULACE^. (C, B. Clarke.) [Campanula. 



Stems 8-24 in., erect, simple. Radical leaves elliptic, long-petioled, subentire ; 

 cauline leaves 1^ by i-i in. Flowers solitary ; peduncle -10 in. Corolla in. long 

 and broad, conic, lobed half-way down, deep blue. Capsule narrowly oblong or sub- 

 linear, contracted near the summit. Seeds very small, ellipsoid. 



12. C. modesta, H.f. Sf T. in Journ. Linn. Soc. ii. 24; glabrous, cauline 

 leaves linear-oblong, calyx*-teeth in. linear, capsule by in. dehiscing near 

 the summit. 



ALPINE SIKKIM, alt. 12-14,000 ft., J. D. H. 



Steins 2-7 in., erect, simple. Radical leaves long-petioled, ovate, siibentire ; cauline 

 by ^ in., sessile, sparingly toothed. Flowers solitary; peduncle -1-2 in. Corolla 

 ji in. long and broad, conic, lobed half-way down, deep blue. Capsule obovoid, long 

 attenuate at the base, contracted near the summit. Seeds very small, ellipsoid.- This 

 is evidently an ally of C. aristata, but distinct specifically by the widely turbinate- 

 clavate capsule.

NIPAL, SIKKIM, and KHASIA MTS., alt. 3-7000 ft., frequent. MALABAR and CEYLON, 

 alt. 4-8000 ft., frequent. 



Stems 8-30 in., suberect, sparingly branched. Radical leaves petioled, 2 by f in., 

 narrowed at both ends, crenate ; cauline similar but sessile, or wider at the base, or 

 (in the Malabar examples) 0. Calyx-teeth |-i in. Corolla deeply divided with lan- 

 ceolate segments in the Deccan examples, almost to the base with very narrow segments 

 in the North Indian. Ovary 3-celled. Capsule from ellipsoid \ in. to narrow turbi- 

 nate in. This Campanula, having spicate inflorescence with a deeply-lobed corolla, 

 might be removed to Phyteuma, and some of the Indian examples are indeed difficult 

 to distinguish specifically from Phyteuma campanuloides, Bieb. (Bot. Mag. t. 1015). 



ORDER LXXXI. VACCINIACE7E. (By C. B. Clarke.) 



Shrubs or small trees ; sometimes epiphytes with the stems greatly 

 thickened at the base. Leaves alternate or falsely whorled, entire or serrate ; 

 stipules 0. Flowers racemose or axillary and solitary ; pedicels 1-bracteate and 

 often 2-bracteolate, often thickened and articulate beneath the ovary. Calyx- 

 tube ovoid, adnate to the ovary ; limb 5-fid, usually persistent. Corolla tubular 

 and 5-toothed, or shortly campanulate with 5 long segments, deciduous. Sta- 

 mens 10, epigynous, free ; anthers opening by apical pores, often produced upwards 

 into 2 tubes opening by slits from the apex. Ovary inferior, 6-celled, or falsely 

 10-celled ; style cylindric, stigma simple ; ovules many (rarely few) at the inner 

 angle of each cell. Fruit a berry, rarely dry, 5- or falsely 10-celled. Seeds many 

 or several (rarely 1) in each cell, small, compressed, albuminous ; radicle next 

 the hiluin. Species 320, natives chiefly of cold and temperate regions.

 with, very long segments.
