at the apex, 4 mm. long ; anterior broadly spathulate, concave, 

 5 mm. long. Ovary glandular, otherwise glabrous. Drupe not seen. 



C. pilosum is related to C. liirsutum (Pearson in Fl. Cap. I.e. 221) 

 from which it is separated by its broad ovate leaves, straight corolla- 

 tube, and perfectly glabrous ovary. These may, however, prove to 

 be extreme forms of a very variable species.

A pubescent shrub with subangular striate branches. Leaves 

 opposite or subopposite, petioled, ovate oblong or subrhomboid, 

 acute or more or less apiculate, cuneate at the base, deeply serrate 

 or inciso-serrate with broad subapiculate lobes or entire below the 

 middle (rarely along the whole margin), 5-9*5 cm. long, 2-5*5 cm. 

 broad ; petiole 1*2 cm. long. Panicle terminal, few-flowered ; 

 peduncle 3-5 cm. long. Floivcrs shortly pedicelled. Calyx cam- 

 panulate during flowering, accrescent, deeply 5-lobed, pubescent 

 and profusely gland-dotted, 4 mm. long ; lobes oblong, at first erect, 

 later reflexed, obtuse or rounded at the apex, 3 mm. long. Corolla- 

 tube curved, glabrous without, villous within especially in the throat, 

 about 1 cm. long. Stamens far exserted. Ovary gland-dotted. 

 Drupe 4-lobed, about 1 cm. in diam. 



This species is allied to C. Wilmsii from which it may be dis- 

 tinguished by its deeply lobed calyx and its larger leaves which are 

 not gland-dotted.
