Hab. Rare in the tropical forests of the eastern slopes of the Pegu

 ollonga, Wall. Cat. 6147 ? ; Pavetta Acheringae Tejsm. and Binn. in 

 Natuurk. Tydsch. Ned. Ind. XXVII. 31). 



Var. a. Roxbueghii, panicle sessile or short-peduncled ; leaves 

 glabrous. 



Var. /S. prBERTTLA {Ix. pulerula, Wall. Cat. 6145), panicle usually 

 longer peduncled ; leaves minutely puberulous beneath. 



Var. y. ptjmila, only 1 — 3 ft. high, simple or nearly so ; flowers 

 often pale rose-coloured ; corymbs small and short, more slender ; leaves 

 glabrous. 



Hab. Frequent (var. a. and y8.) in the tropical forests along the 

 eastern slopes of the Pegu Yomah and from Martaban down to Tenasserim ; 

 var. y. Martaban, in the eng-forests. — FL Febr. — April. 



A very variable plant, of which some forms closely approach I. villosa, 

 I identify Roxburgh's species from the Wallichian specimens thus named, 

 which have pubescent inflorescences, while Roxburgh's drawings exhibit 

 sessile glabrous corymbs. Var. y. may form a distinct species, but (being 

 a laterite plant) it shews no other differences except such reductions and 

 modifications of growth as can be explained by the influence of the peculiar 

 substratum on which it grows.
