THE CAMPANULA TRIBE. 



Herbs or undershrubs, sometimes climbing, by Lindl. referred to 2L 

 genera. Of the 311 species belonging to this order, only 19 are found in 

 intratropical countries. Alph. DC. remarks, that " it is within the 36° and 

 47° N. lat. that in our hemisphere the greatest number of species is found ; 

 the chain of the Alps, Italy, Greece, Caucasus, the Altai range are their 

 true country. In whatever direction we leave these limits, the number 

 of species rapidly decreases. In the southern hemisphere, the Cape of 

 Good Hope, (lat. 34° S.) is another centre of habitation, containing not 

 fewer than 63 species." {Lindl.) In the E. Indies, have, according to 

 Wall. Cat. and Royl. ill., been found 36 species, viz. 1 of Cephalostig- 

 ma, (Banks of the Irrawaddi,) 8 of Codonopsis, (Himalayas, one from 

 the rocks of Pingee, on the banks of Irrawaddi,) 2 of Wahlenbergia, (one 

 from Nepal ; the other from the plains of India,) 24 of Campanula, 

 (Himalayas, 1 from the Neelgherries ; another from Prome,) and 1 of
