826 *ENTANBKIA monogynia. Arg9stemma. 



lanceolate, sub-falcate. Peduncles two or three, rarely solitary, few- 

 flowered. 



A native of ^'ipal, where I found it on rocks at Moieko in the val-

Koot fleshy and almost tuberous, short, with capillary fibres. — - 

 Stems cespitose, entire, from three to four niches high, filiform, 

 round, with a pair or two of minute lanceolate, connate scaes.— 

 Leaves four, veiticilled round the apes of the stem, lanceolate, acu- 

 minate, of unequal size, from one to two inches long, with unequal 

 sides ; cilia'e, pubescent, entire, most spreading, attenuate and acute 

 at the base, almost sessile ; shining above, whitish underneath ; they 

 are mostly bent towards one side, which makes the verticil appear di- 

 midiatei — Peduncles two or three, rarely solitary, terminal, filiform, 

 one or two inches long, smooth, bearing three or four umbelled flow- 

 ers, which are smaller than those of the preceding species, but other-
