6.* Toeenia edbens Benth., DC. Frodr. x. 410. 



This is included nnder T. vagvns in the F. B. I., and may, as Hooker suggests, 

 be bnt a form of that species. The two are, however, very easily distinguished in 

 the Herbarium by the smaller, often minnte, teeth on the longer filaments of T. riibens. 

 They are still more easily distinguished in the field by the colour of the flowers : 

 T. vagans has a fairly uniform blueish-purple or dull-violet corolla ; T. rubens has a 

 corolla with a pale lilac or nearly white tube with three bright violet-purple spots.

Teijsmann's original specimens of "T. flava Miq. non Ham." are marked corolla 

 cozrulea. Two species of Torenia collected by Teijsmann and described by Miquel 

 I have not seen. One of these is T. lamponga which from Miquel's description 

 ought certainly to be T. peduncularis ; the other is T. cozrulea and it ought equally 

 certainly to be T. ciliata.
