journey S. W. of Sinnagur. Leaves radical, pe- 

 tioled, subrotund, irregularly sinuated. Pctioie3 

 very long, villous. Flowers about the size of a cow- 

 slip, in innbells, a pretty mixture of white and red, 

 with tints of yellow. Involucre, many leaved, the 

 leaves toothed. Perianths, unequal, in some flow- 

 ers larger than the corol, many scattered hairs 

 mixed with the flowers. 



Lonicera quinquclocularis. — A pretty large bush, with 

 Jong slender branclK's. Leaves opposite, petioled, 

 ovate, pointed, sjtrmetimes elliptical, entire. Flow- 

 ers axillary, ^i short solitary peduncles, each pe- 

 duncle raising two sessile florets. At the base of 

 the florets, a one-leaved bract, or rather, I think, 

 common cal^'x, two parted, divisions ovate, con- 

 cave, coloured. Proper perianth abov% small, five 

 toothed, coloured, withering. Corol, one petalled» 

 tubular. Border two parted, or two lipp'd ; upper 

 lip oblong, obtuse, entire, reflected; lower more 

 than twice broader, four toothed. Pericarp in an 

 half ripe state, appears to be a capsule, five celled, 

 with about five small, ovate, red seeds in each cell. 

 Doctor Roxburgh considers the characters of 

 Lonicera and Hanidlia united in this plant, but

 of the former, and to the second section thereof, 

 and comes nearest Xiilosteiim, but the five celled 

 capsule, and very short common peduncle precludes 

 the idea of their being the same. It grows in the 

 vallies about Adxcaanee. 



Verbascian TJiapsus. — In the valley nt^cix Dosah; a ro^ 

 bust plant, from four to five feet high, and from 

 the profusion of its yellow flowers, very showy. 

 The natives have a superstitious notion of the effi- 

 cacy of this plant in protecting them from the visi-

 Aakul-he)\ or ver. 



Daturaj Stramonhnji. — In every part of the moun-
