lanceolate, mouth 'woolly. Capwle of 2 hard cocci splitting ventrally, each with 

 about 6 angular seeds. — This is certainly Arnott's H. nodulosa, who describes it as 

 2-C0CC0U3, and not the H. nodulosa a, of Thwaites, which has 1 indehiscent cocci, and 

 is an Alleophania.

Stem apparently erect ; branches acutely 4-angled. Leaves green when dry, 2-6 

 by ^2 in., narrowed into a petiole J-f in. ; cusp of stipules longer than the body. 

 Peduncles of cymes in one form |-2 in. long, in )3. of Thwaites 0, with 2 foliaceous 

 bracts under the head. Flowers crowded, subsessile. Capsules ovoid, smooth, cells

26. XC. albo-nervia, Sedd. lo. PI. Ind. Or. t. 3 ; quite glabrous, much 

 branched, stem obtusely 4-angled, leaves petioled eUiptic-tonceolate acuminate,

 sessile, calyx-teeth lanceolate much longer than the capsule. 



TiNNBVELLi and Teatancohe Mts., alt. 3-4000 ft., rare, Beddome. 



Very nearly allied to H. cinereo-viridis, but differing remarkably in the stipules, 

 the segments of which are sometimes filiform, and in the long lanceolate acuminate 

 calyx-lobes. 



27. K. travancorica, Bedd. Ic. PI. Ind. Or. 7 ; quite glabrous, much 

 branched, branches obtusely 4-angled, leaves small petioled elliptic acute or 

 acuminate, nerves indistinct, stipules semi-orbicular pectinate, peduncles axillary 

 capillary 1-fld., calyx-lobes elongate subulate longer than the capsule. 



Teatancoee and Tinnbvblli Mts., alt. 3-4000 ft., Beddome. 



A small species; branches woody, divaricating, white when old, youngest only 

 acutely 4-angled. Leaves towards the end of the branches, green when dry, ^1 J in., 

 rather coriaceous; stipules scurfy. Peduncles shorter than the leaves, filiform. 

 Flcmers solitary, i in. long, without bracts. Cah/x-twbe not produced above the 

 ovary. Corolla funnel-shaped, glabrous except the woolly mouth. Capsules glabrous 

 with stiff erect calyx-teeth, cells few-seeded.

 branches and leaves beneath hirsute, leaves petioled elliptic-lanceolate acumi-

 pectinate, cymes on axillary slender peduncles, calyx-teeth ovate-lanceolate 

 equalling the hirsute capsule,

Stem terete, spreading, short spreading branches densely clothed with stapular 

 scars, as thick as a goose-quill. Leaves crowded at the end of the branches, yellow- 

 brown when dry, 1-3 by \-l in., very coriaceous; petiole short, stout; stipules 

 sometimes J in. diam., coriaceous, hirsute; segments subulate. Peduncles shorter 

 than the leaves when bearing flowers only and slender, when bracteate with a 

 branched cyme stouter. Capsule globose, cells several-seeded.
