 sula and Ceylon, frequent. Bengal ; Burdwan, Edgeworth. Scape 2-6 in., erect, 

 much thicker than in the starved examples of U. reticulata. Pedicels ^ in. : brac- 

 teoles linear, less pointed than in U. reticulata. Seeds as of U. reticulata, but smaller 

 and more finely scrobiculate. 



11. IT. scandens, Benj. in Linncea, xx. 309, partly, minute, twining, 

 glabrous, calyx-lobes' in fruit in. obtuse, lower lip of corolla - in. blue, 

 seeds minute pbovoid laxly scrobiculate. Oliver in Journ. Linn. Soc. iii.

Scapes 1-6 in., exceedingly slender, twining on U. Wallichiana & uliginosa, 

 Pedicels ^ in., scattered. Seeds minute ; testa very lax, almost wrinkled, cells large 

 oblong. 



VAB. capillacea ; scape most slender not twining, calyx-lobes in fruit -^ in. very 

 obtuse. U. capillacea, Wall. Cat. 6399; Oliver in Journ. Linn. Soc iii. 184, not of 

 Serb. Wight. Madras; Wight. U. capillacea, Wight Herb , is U. Wallichiana, 

 Wight Ic. t. 1572, fig. 1. The fragments in Wallich's Herbarium (1| in. long) 

 of U. capillacea, Vahl, and which are said to have come from Wight's Herbarium, 

 appear to have had blue flowers. Wallich seems to. have affixed the name capillacea 

 on his own, not Wight's authority.

DECCAN PENINSULA (Klein). CHOTANAGPORE; alt. 2000 ft., Clarice. KHASIA 

 MTS. ; alt. 3-5000 ft., Griffith, H.f. $ T., &c. 



Scapes 3-8 in., erect, slender, minutely densely villous. Calyx-lobes orbicular, in 

 fruit -,'g in. Capsule T ' n in., globose. Seeds minute, ovoid, obscurely scrobiculate. 

 By the subsessile flowers and small globose capsules this seems allied to U. racemosa, 

 as Prof. Oliver states ; but the bracts not bein^ produced backwards below their point 

 of insertion, it must be placed here in the artificial arrangement adopted. 



Flowers yellow.

 calyx-lobes in fruit in. ovate obtuse, lower lip of corolla in., spur nearly
