Bokhee. Utimookta—a large climbing shrub, with very beautiful white and 
yellow (one of the 5 petals is yellow, the rest white) flowers, in terminal ta- 
cemes; petals fringed; one of the stamens is much longer than the rest; fruit 
unequally 3 winged. 
Grows in great abundance on the Ghauts; flowers in February and March;-= 
in Bombay gardens. Sir W. Jones observes, that it was a favorite plant of 
Saconitala which she justly called the *‘ Delight of the woods,” 
The bark isavery good sub-aromatic bitter. (Dr. Lush.)

Kurdul.—a climbing shrub with oblong leaves growing at the ends of the 
branches; flowers small, whitish, in terminal racemes; appear in March.—The 
Parr Ghaut; ravines at Kandalla; not common, 
The Modira Valli usually quoted for Art:botrys oderatissima, has a great 
resemblance to this plant: The next figure alluded to by Wight and Arnott 
(prod. \. p. 107.) has the leaves too broad; besides it wants the hooks on 
the branches whichthe Kurdul is furnished with. Aublet’s Genus Potalia. 
(Lam. t, 348.) seems to have an affinity. 
This is a very pretty shrub, but hardly known yet to European Botanists.
