A NEW GENUS OF LABIATE. 697 



Some additional material was obtained from the Kurram valley some 

 few years afterwards by Harsukh, another plant-collector belonging to 

 the Botanical Department. 



Afridia is most nearly related to Nepeta^ differing from that genus 

 by the absence of calyx-teeth. 



It may be mentioned that the form with small included stamens has 

 shorter and more congested flowering spikes than in the form with 

 exserted stamens ; also that the anther-lobes of the former remain 

 confluent. 



A plate representing both forms is being prepared, and will shortly be 

 published in the " Annals of the Royal Botanic Garden, Calcutta."
