 spicuously 5-winged.

BHOTAN and KHASIA MTS. ; alt. 3-7000 ft., Griffith, H.f. $ T., &c. 



Branches stout, hirsute towards the extremities. Leaves subsessile, 4 by \\ in., 

 acute, base obtuse or rounded, coriaceous, rugose with impressed nerves, margins 

 often recurved. Peduncle % in. ; pedicels -l| in., hairy or glabrescent; bracts j^in. 

 Calyx-lobes in early flower ^ in., lanceolate or scarcely triangular ; in early fruit 

 enlarged, elliptic or ovate, foliaceous, overlapping at the margins, appearing decurrent 

 down the young fruit and produced beneath it ; in ripe fruit again less prominent, 

 triangular, scarcely overlapping. Corolla f by ^ in., tubular, shortly lobed, glabrous, 

 white or rose, with red transverse V-shaped marks* Kerry ^ in. and more, widely 

 hemispheric, 5-ribbed, hardly 5-gonal. 



3. P. Listeri, King ms. ; leaves elliptic-oblong acute subentire glabrous 

 not rugose beneath, corymbs small very short-peduncled, corolla small rose-red. 



BHOTAN ; Duphla Hills, alt. 7000 ft., Lister. 



Branches stout, angular towards the extremities. Leaves subsessile 3 by l in., 

 obtuse, shortly cordate ^at the base, nerves (primary and secondary) elevated on the 

 upper surface. Peduncles from beneath the leaves, ^- in. ; pedicels 2-3, in. ; 

 bracts i in. Calyx-lobes in., broadly elliptic, obtuse iu bud. Corolla (in bud) ^-^ 

 in long. Closely allied to P. riigosum and as though a starved form of it with 

 depauperated corymbs and small flowers ; but the texture and nervation of the leaves 

 give it a widely different appearance. 



4. P. flavum, Hook. f. in Bot. Mag. t. 4910; leaves elliptic acute sub- 

 entire or slightly crenate glabrous or silky on the midrib beneath, pedicels 

 densely fascicled hardly corymbose, corolla yellow. 



BHOTAN ; Duphla Hills, Nuttall. 



Branches round, pubescent towards the extremity. Leaves 3 by 1^ in., rounded 

 at the base, coriaceous, rugose, obscurely crenate ; petiole ^- in. Pedicels f in., 

 pilose, thickened upwards, densely fascicled on very short spurs ; bracts in., lanceo- 

 late ; pedicels and calyx-tube corolloid, yellowish (in the Kew picture). Calyx-lobes 

 in flower ^ in., elliptic-lanceolate, striate, pilose. Corolla | by in., tubular, 

 inflated in the middle, shortly lobed, pubescent without, yellow. Berry in. diam. 

 and upwards, crowned by the spreading narrowly lanceolate acute calyx-teeth. 



5. P. Hookeri, Clarke ; leaves elliptic acute crenate or serrate gla- 

 brous or hairy on the midrib beneath, pedicels fascicled or hardly corymbose, 

 corolla yellow. 



SIKKIM ; alt. 5-8000 ft., J. D. H., Treutler, &c., frequent. BHOTAN ; Nuttall. 



Intermediate between P. nigosum and P. flavum ; the dried examples are (from the 

 serrated leaves) always arranged under P. rugosum, but the corolla is a clear yellow 

 or (when young) a greenish-yellow. The calyx- lobes in the buds are larger and more 

 obtuse than in any flowering or fruiting example of P. rugosum\ the pedicels are 

 subfascicled ; nevertheless, it appears really more allied to P. rugosum than to P. 

 flavum.
