 .at the top or on the base of the leaf beneath. Braeteoles linear, conspicuous on the 

 joung spikes. Flowers aU hermaphrodite. Cali/x-teeth. glabrous without, hairy 

 within. Young ovan/ glabrous. — The examples from other parts of India than the 

 East referred to T. citrina by collectors are in the present enumeration supposed 

 included under T. Chebida. T. citrina has a straighter stem, a brighter foliage and 

 narrower fruits, but ought perhaps hardly to be reckoned a distinct species.
