virgata and parviflora ; but there are fruiting specimens from Balti in the Shayuk 

 valley of a plant the capsules of which are nearly ^ in. long.

 3-fid, calyx-lobes linear-lanceolate as long as the tube. Benth. in DC.

I have seen no specimens of this, which is probably referable to L. Benthamiana. 

 Possibly there is but one species of this genus. 



TRIBE IX. EUPHRASIEJE. 



48. FKTHEIROSFERMUBI, Hunge. 



(& 50 EMMENOSPBEMUM, Clarke.) 



Annual or biennial, viscid herbs. Leaves opposite, pinnatifid. Flowers 

 axillary, solitary, sessile or shortly pedicelled, ebracteolate. Calyx cam- 

 panulate, 5-fid, lobes short narrow. Corolla 2-lipped, tube broad, dilated 

 above ; upper lip very short, erect, lobes 2 folded back ; lower longer, broader, 

 spreading, 2-fid, throat open, palate 2-gibbous. Stamens 4. didynamous ; 

 anthers beneath the upper lip glabrous, cells equal parallel distinct, bases 

 mucronate. Stigma spathulate, shortly 2-lobed. Capsule compressed, 

 beaked, loculicidal; valves entire, semiseptiferous, at length separating from 

 the placentifevous column. Seeds numerous, ovoid, reticulated. Species 3, 

 a Chinese and Japanese and 2 Indian. 



A new genus (jEmmenospermum) has been proposed by Clarke (and inadvertently 

 introduced into the key, p. 249) for P. Parishii, founded on the seeds being minutely 

 reticulated and not striate, a character not supported by habit or any other. The seeds 

 of P. chinense are ellipsoid ^ in. long, with a loose pale reticulated testa ; those 

 of P. Parishii are about half that size, with a dark close testa. Much greater 

 differences occur in the seeds of all large and many small genera of Scrophularinese. 



1. P. Parishii, Hook. f. ; softly hairy, leaves sessile broadly ovate 

 deeply pinnatifid, lobes obtuse, flowers subsessile, corolla-tube much longer 

 than the calyx, upper lip very short truncate 2-toothed, lobes of lower 

 obcordate. 



TENASSEBIM ; at Moulmein, Koli Mts. and Thoungyne, alt. 5000 ft., Lobb ; 

 Summit of Moolee, alt. 7400 ft., Parish. 



Stem 3-8 in., simple or branched from the base or upwards, hairs spreading. 

 Leaves -5 in. ; lobes linear, entire or notched. Calyx ^ in., glandular, 5-cleft to the 

 middle ; lobes linear-lanceolate, obtuse. Corolla \ in. long. Capsule in., pubescent. 

 Seeds ^ of an inch long, oblong, testa close dark. 



2. P. glandulosum, Benth. in Gen. PL ii ?S; glandular-pubescent, 

 leaves sessile 3-partite, segments linear, calyx-loftes* unequal, corolla-tube 

 hardly longer than the calyx. Euphrasia ? glandulosa, Benth. in DC. Prodr. 

 x. 555. 



WESTERN HIMALAYA ; (in Garwhal ?) at Shioli, alt. 6000 ft., Edgeworth. 



Stem slender, erect, 3-4 in., simple or branched. Leaves |-i in. Flowers few, 

 sessile. Calyx T ' B in. long. Corolla g- in. wide. The specimens are quite insufficient 

 for a second analysis of the flower.
