NOTICEEI IX THE PRECEDING TOUR. 36S 



Doubtful. — Found between Jduruviee and '/h/ka-ka- 

 Maanda, a small tree thickly covered with flowers 

 of a yellowish white, and so fragrant as to be evi- 

 dent to the senses at a considerable distance. It 

 bears the following characters. Leaves alternate, 

 petioled, ovate, serrated, about the base almost en- 

 tire, smooth above, nerves hairy beneath. Petioles 

 very short, chai^neled hairy. Racemes rather sim- 

 ple, terminal, and from the axills of the leaves, 

 numerous. Peduncles hairy. Calyx perianth, one 

 leaved, half five-cleft, coloured: divisions thin, 

 obtusely ovate, rather unequal. Corol, petals, five, 

 ovate, rounded, two a httle less, slightly adhering 

 to each other at the base. Nectaries, five rounded, 

 compressed glands, sitting on the germ, surround- 

 ing the style. Stamens, filaments thirty or more, 

 longer than. the corol, unequal, slightly attached 

 in parcels to the base of the petals. Anthers 

 roundish, erect. Germ beneath. Style shorter 

 tlian the filaments, thi elver, compressed. Stigma 

 headed, depressed. Pericarp (in an unripe state) 

 two celled, in each two or three ovate seeds. It 

 has most affinity, perhaps, with the genus Tilla, ex- 

 cept in the pericarp, and on the examination of 

 this, when it can be obtained perfect, we must de- 

 pend to ascertain its place in the system. 



POLYANDRIA POLYGYNIA, 



Uvaria.- — ^ear Coadzcara, above the ghauts, a. very 

 lefty tree. 



DIDYNAMIA GYMNOSPERMIA. 



Bcdlota. — A bushy half shrubby plant on the side of 

 the mountains, and near the road descending into 

 the valley of Bclkate. About three feet "high, 

 seemingly annual, stems and branches four cornered. 

 Leaves opposite, petioled, ovate, acuminate, ser- 

 rated, (teeth distant, deep, obtuse), downy, veined. 

 Plowers axillary. Peduncles very short, solitary, 

 six flowered, have the appearance of verticels, 



bracted.
