Car Nicobar. There are no authentic examples of D. Griffithii at 

 Calcutta, with which to compare the plant obtained by the writer in Car 

 Nicobar, and by Mr. Jelinek in Kamorta and Katschall. There are 

 specimens of Novara n. 115 at Calcutta, and an examination of these 

 shows that they are precisely the same as the present Car Nicobar plant 

 and that they have been erroneously referred by Mr. Kurz to D. hen- 

 galensis. The Nicobars plant has a hirsute corolla throat, the corolla- 

 throat in D. hengalensis is glabrous.
