In the opinion of Forbes and Hemsley, I.e., this species is 

 synonymous with C. longifolia, far. a;. Miquel, I.e. examined a 

 large number of specimina, and found a considerable number 

 of more or less important differences. We too, consider the 

 species as a well-founded one, with an affinity with C. longi- 

 folia, far. 0^, from which it differs by its smaller leaves, which 

 have an acumen, the often somewhat rhomboid form of its leaves, 

 its coarsely dentate margins, relatively longer corolla-lobes, 

 capitate stigma (in C. longif. bifldj, and its red fruits (in C. 

 longif. white). 



Probably the form with „wider leaves, less acute base, often 

 rhomboid, and with 9 nerves on each side of the midrib", is 

 identical with our var. ?, which is also Miquel' s C. rhynchophylla. 



Its affinity is also with C. purpurea.
