tawiiy wool intermixed with copious spreading hairs. Leaves from oblong to 

 ovate-lanceolate, acuminate, 5 to 8 in, long, wrinkled and minutely lioaiy 

 above, floccose-cottony underneath. Cymes dichotomous ; the short branches 

 terminating in dense globular hirsute heads. Bracts subulate, as long as the 

 calyx. Calyx-teeth subulate; much longer than the tube. Corolla hairy out- 

 side. Stamens much longer than the corolla, with small anthers. — C. Rox- 

 burghii, Schau. in DC. Prod. xi. 640, but not C. incana, Eoxb. 



Common in ravines, Chamjnon and others. Also about Canton, but not known out of 

 south China. 



2. C. macrophylla, VaJil, Symb. iii. 13, ^. 53 ; Schau. in DC. Prod. xi. 

 644. A tall shrub, with the foliage nearly of the last, but very difterent in 

 inflorescence and calyx. Branches and petioles thickly clothed with a floccose 

 wool, but without long hairs. Leaves oblong, lanceolate or rarely ovate-lan- 

 ceolate, acuminate, crenately toothed, 6 to 10 in. long, wrinkled and nearly 

 glabrous above, floccose-cottony or woolly underneath. Cymes much branched, 

 with very numerous small flowers, all distinct. Bracts small, linear. Calyx 

 hairy, truncate ; the nerves protruding into minute or sometimes linear teeth, 

 but always much shorter than the tube. Corolla slightly pubescent. Stamens 

 much exserted. — P. Incana, Eoxb. Fl. Ind. i. 393.* 



Hongkong, Seemaun, WrigJit ; also on the adjacent continent, and frequent in northern 

 and eastern India. 



3. C. integerrima, Champ, in Keio Journ. Bot. v. 135. A shrub of 8 or 

 10 ft., the branches petioles and inflorescence clothed with a dense floccose 

 yellowish tomentum or wool. Leaves fi"om broadly ovate to nearly oblong, 

 shortly acuminate, 4 to 6 in, long, quite eutii'c, glabrous or nearly so above, 

 densely tomentose or wooUy underneath. Cymes loose, with very numerous 

 small flowers. Calyx tomentose, truncate or sinuately toothed. CoroUa gla- 

 brous. Anthers small, the filaments much exserted. 



Common in Hongkong, Champion, Hance, Wright. Also on the adjacent continent, but 

 not known out of S. China. It comes nearest to the C. Wallichiana from the Himalaya, but 

 that has much larger flowers, with large oblong anthers on short filaments. 



4. C. Reevesii, Wall.; Schau. in DC. Prod. v. 641. A shnib, the 

 branches, petioles, and inflorescence covered with a short close m.ealy tomentum. 

 Leaves oval-oblong, acute or acuminate, 5 to 8 in. long, entire or irregularly 

 toothed, glabrous and nearly smooth above when full-gro\\m, white-cottony 

 underneath. Cymes on rather long peduncles, very much branched. Flowers 

 very numerous, glabrous, and larger than in the foregoing species. Calyx 

 truncate or sinuately toothed. Anthers small, the filaments much exserted, 

 —a nudiflora, Hook, and Arn. Bot. Beech. 206, t. 46. 



Hongkong, Champon, Wright. Plentiful at East Point, Wilford. Also on the adjacent 

 continent, but not known out of S. China. 



5. C. longifoliaj Lam. ; Schau. in DC. Prod. xi. 645, var. brevijjes. A 

 shrub, sometimes glabrous, but more frequently more or less sprinkled with 



* Specimens were distributed by Roxburgh under the name of C. cana ; but the C. cana 

 of his Flora is tlie true C. cana, Linn., and was originally named C. deutata by Roxburgh. 

 Specimens of the C. macrophyJla have been distributed by Wallich as C. Ro.cburghii, n. 1833, 

 as well as under the n. 1832, which has occasioned much confusion between this species and 

 the preceding one.
