Specimen from Sai, Gilgit. 



This account of P. dolichorrhiza is based on an examination of 21 



specim 



Dr. Henderson's specimen has precisely the calyx and corolla of Mr. A. Kegel's 

 specimens from Sairam in Turkestan; Kegel's appears to be exactly Schrenk's plant. 

 Dr. Falconer's gathering from Iskardo and one of Colonel Tanner's gatherings from 

 Gilgit are the same thing. All Dr. Giles' specimens and Dr. Griffith's Hindu Kush 



gathering (Jour. n. 157), with the gathering by Colonel Tanner at Sai which has been 

 figured, agree with each other in every respect and differ from the genuine plant only in 

 having the capsule one-half in place of one-third longer than the calyx. "P. cabulica,'' 1 



which is Dr. Griffith's plant from Kurzar, has a corolla indistinguishable from the 

 Hindu Kush plant, and has the same longer capsule; its calyx has, however, subulate 

 teeth. As this is the only character by which its separation may be effected from 

 P. dolichorrhiza, it seems inadvisable to treat it even as a variety.
