Yar. a. genttina, branches, petioles, etc., spreadingly tawny hirsute ; 

 pods similarly hirsute while unripe ; flowers purple. 



Var. (3. glabbescens, branches, petioles, and also the pods thinly 

 appressed hirsute, the last shorter and almost glabrescent ; flowers pale 

 lilac, violet at the tips. 



Hab. Both varieties rather frequent in the upper mixed forests, along 

 choungs, also in hill-toungyas, of the Pegu Yomah ; also Ava, Khakyen

Yar. (3. may be distinct and stands in a similar relation to the nor-
