nor the blue flowers for V. lifida ; and there is no other known Malacca species that 

 will at all suit. 



2. U. FOVEOLATA, Edgew. in Proc. Linn. Soc. i. 351 ; scape twining leafless 

 2-6-fld., bracts transfixed, calyx-lobes ovate acute, corolla purple, seeds glistening 

 punctate. Bengal ; Edgeworth. Near U. uliqinnfta (ex Edgew.), but from the 

 description of the seeds perhaps rather allied to U. affinis. 



3. U. ALATA, Benj. in Sot. Zeit. 1845, 212; leafless, scape 1-2 in. 2-3-fR, scales 

 basifixed, calyx-lobes ovate equal subacute decurrent on the pedicel, corolla longer 

 than the calyx, spur conic acute longer than the calyx. " India " (Benjamin). 

 Neither the shape of the corolla-lip, its colour, nor any account of the seeds is 

 supplied. 



4. U. SQTJAMOSA, Benj. in Bot. Zeit. 1845. 212 ; leafless, scape 3 in. 3-fld., scales 

 attached by their middle, flowers subsessile, calyx-lobes equal orbicular-ovate obtuse. 

 Nepal (Benjamin}. Benjamin's description fits very well the common U. racemosa. 

 This species however must have been so well known to Benjamin that he would hardly 

 publish it again under a new name ; hence Oliver records U. squamosa as an indeter- 

 minate species. 



5. U. PATTCIFOLIA, Benj. in Linncea. xv. 309 ; leaves T ' -l in. oblong obtuse, 

 petiole $ in., scape 4 in., pedicels exceedingly short, calyx-lobes | in. equal obtuse. 

 India (Benjamin). Supposed by Oliver to be near U. racemosa. 



6. U. OBTUSILOBA, Benj. in Linncea, xx. 312; leaves in. ovate obtuse, petiole 

 in., scapes 3-20 in., scales fixed by their middle, calyx-lobes round obtuse. Ceylon, 

 Nepal, China (Benjamin). Also supposed by Oliver to be near U. racemosa. 



7. U. ALBIPLOEA, Griff'. Notul. iv. 168 ; leafless, scapes simple filiform, pedicels 

 bracteolate at the base, corolla white, lower lip yellow -spotted, spur acutely conic a 

 little longer than the lower lip. Mergui ; Griffith. 



8. U. LILACINA, Griff. Notul. iv. 168; leafless, raceme few-fld., fruit-pedicels 

 erect, calyx-lobes equal acute, corolla lilac-blue, lower lip with a yellow spot, spur 

 conic-subulate as long as the lower lip. Mergui ; Griffith. 



9. U. CAPILLARIS, Don Prodr. 85; leafless, scape 3-4 in. capillary few-fld., lower 

 calyx-lobe (?) ovate acute longer, corolla blue, spur conic. DC. Prodr. viii. 90. 

 Nepal (D. Don). 



10." U. EAMOSA, Vahl Enum. i. 204; leafless, scape few-fld., flowers small, spur 

 conic short, fruit-pedicels recurved. DC. Prodr. viii. 25. : Deccan Peninsula 

 (Koeniff). Doubtfully referred by Oliver to U. flexuosa ; it appears as likely to be 

 U. coerulea or one of that section. 



U. ambigua is recorded as Indian by DC. (Prodr. viii. 9) on the faith of a wrong 

 field determination of a specimen by Wallich . 



II. PXNGUXCUX.A, Linn. 



Herbs. Leaves radical, rosulate, entire. Scapes erect, 1-fld., leafless, 

 ebracteate. Calyx 4-5-lobed, more or less 2-lipped. Corolla 2-lipped, 

 spurred, purple or yellow. Anthers ovate, sub-1-celled. Style short, 

 stigma very unequally 2-lobed. Seeds ellipsoid. Species 15, all extra- 

 tropical. 



P. alpina, Linn.\ Eeichl. Iconogr. t. 81, fig. 166; leaves subsessile 

 elliptic sparsely hairy on the upper surface, corolla white yellow-spotted, 

 spur hardly as long as the corolla. DC. Prodr. viii. 31 ; Oliver in Jour*.
