 Ear. i. 24, t. 28 ; Bot. Reg. t. 1334. 



Khasia Mts., alt. 2-4000 ft. ; on the southern face common, Wallich, &c. 

 Bhotan (T. Anderson). 



Leaves often 9 by 3 in. ; petiole 1^ in. Panicles 3-6 by 1 in., terminal or quasi- 

 terminal, solitary or 2-3 together. Corolla pubescent ; upper lip suberect, shortly 

 2-lobed, yellow ; lower deeply 3-lobecl, segments patent subrecurved, green with 

 purple spots. Capsule IJ by J in., 12-seeded.^Confused with P. asperulus, but 

 the leaves are larger, the corolla larger and altogether a different shape and colour. 

 Nees doubts whether Bot. Reg. t. 1334 belongs here, but it is a most faithful 

 picture. 



8. P. elongratus, T. Anders, in Journ. Linn. Soc. ix. 508; leaves 

 long-petioled ovate acuminate at both ends glabrous, spikes elongate 

 slender, corolla J in. tubular 2-lipped. Kurz For. Fl. ii. 346. 



Tenasseeik ; Amherst, Falconer (T. Anderson). 



An undershrnb, 1-2 ft.; stem terete, primrose. Leaves including the petiole 

 4-6 by 2^ in. Spikes nearly a foot, most terminal trichotomously branched or 

 axillafy simple ; flowers distichously opposite, sessile, solitary ; bracts J in., ovate, 

 acute ; bracteoles subulate. Calyx deeply 5-partite, segments linear. Corolla-tube 

 straight, pubescent, lower lip hirsute within. Stamens of the genus. Capsule g in., 

 clavate, subtetragonous, glabrous, 8-seeded (T. Anderson). — Not seen. 



** Cymes or short panicles axillary. 



9. P. pubinervius, T. Anders, in Journ. Linn. Soc. ix. 508 ; leaves 

 elliptic or ovate acute at both ends pubescent on the nerves beneath, 

 cymes axillary, calyx-segments woolly within nearly glabrous on the back.

A much-branched shrub, 3-8 ft. diam. Leaves 3J by IJ in.,snbentire,puberulous 

 or glabrate above ; petiole | in. Cymes numerous, 1 in. diam., subsessile, nearly 

 glabrous ; pedicels often ^ in., ebracteolate at the apex ; bracts at their base minute 

 Calyx-tube y'j in. ; teeth J in., linear-lnnceolate, appearing woolly on the margins. 

 Corollj. \ iu., mature pubemlous, tubuliir-inflated nearly from the base, red ; limb 

 small, segments ovate subconnivent. Stamens 2, glabrous; anthers far-exserted. 

 Ovary glabrous. Capsule elongate, many-seeded. — Nees marked this Oraptophyllum 

 hortense. 



10. P. Jenkinsii, Clarke ; leaves elliptic acute at both ends glabrous, 

 racemes or small panicles axillary grey pubescent, calyx-segments uniformly 

 grey pubescent.

Branches elongate, stout, quadrangular, glabrous, puberulous upwards. Leaves 

 Gi by 2| in., subentire ; petiole IJ in. Racemes 1-2J in., dense.fld., sometimes com- 

 pound; pedicels 0-^ in., closely grey pubescent. Calyx-tube ^^ in., segments i in., 

 linear-lanceolate. CoroMa nearly as of P. pubinervius, but rather more pubescent ; 

 appears to have been orange. Stamens 2, glabrous ; anthers very shortly exserted. 

 Ovary glabrous, 12-ovulate; style glabrou-. Capsule not seen. — The calyx and 

 corolla of this species are very like those of P. pubinervius, but the habit is more that 

 of P. thyrsijlorus. Nees marked this Thyrsacanthus indicus, regardless of the 2 

 stameus, and 12 ovules.
