Turkestan (ex Maximowicz). Afghanistan: Kurrum Valley, Aitchison 

 (No. 341), 



The specimens from Afghanistan approach the preceding species; the sepals are 

 lanceolate, one-nerved and only about half as long as the tube of the corolla, and 

 the leaves are oblong to lanceolate.

The occurrence of A. biflora in Shikoku, as reported by Makino, seems rather un- 

 likely, and as long as I have seen no specimens of A. biflora from Japan, this deter- 

 mination seems doubtful to me.
