Stems 8-30 in., suberect, sparingly branched.' Badical leaves petiol.ed, 2 by f, in., 

 narrowed at both ends, crenate ; cauline similar but sessile, or wider at the base, or 

 (in the Malabar examples) 0. Calyx-teeth \-^ in. Corolla deeply divided with lan- 

 ceolate segments in the Deecan examples, almost to tl^e base with very narrow segments 

 in the North Indian. Ovary 3-celled. Capstde iiom ellipsoid J in. to narrow turbi- 

 nate J in. — This Campamda, having spicate inflorescence with a deeply-lobed corolla, 

 might be removed to Fhyteuma, and some of the Indian examples are indeed difBcult 

 to distinguish specifically from Fhyteuma campamdoides, Bieb. (Bot. Mag. t.-1015).
