Two forms were included by Baker fil., in Journ. Bot. xxix. p. 364, under his species 
Malvastrum Pearcei. One of these from the Andes of Yungas, Bolivia, has been referred 
to N. purpurascens: the other, of which there are two collections, 1s retained in the 
species. The stipules are adnate to the petiole for about three-fourths of its length, 
with their free portions slightly recurved. The stellate hairs are only sparingly 
distributed over the upper surface of the lamina and the free portions of the stipules. 
In some of the specimens the petioles are considerably elongated, suggesting that these 
plants grow amongst grass or other plants and have been “ drawn up." 
This species in its leaf-form shows affinity to N. aristata and N. longirostris more 
particularly. As regards the floral characters, however, it is distinct in its short corolla- 
tube and elongated head of stamens with dark green anthers and long free filaments.

The lamina when young is covered by a delieate stellate tomentum on the upper 
surface, which disappears as the leaves mature (Pl. 29. fig. 5). VN. saltensis is similar 
in this respect and is perhaps fairly closely allied to this species. The vagina is ciliate 
as in JN. anthemidifolia, but the original lateral lobes of the lamina are much more 
developed than in that species.

The young leaves of this species have fairly long cilia in addition to the ordinary 
tomentum of stellate hairs, but as the leaves mature the cilia are usually shed (Pl. 29. 
figs. 7, 8).
