The present plant was referred to E\ umbellata Thunb. by 

 myself in the paper above cited. Studying more carefully, I have 

 found that there exists some difference between my plant and 

 Thunbeeg's species, especially in the structure of flowers, though 

 they are very near. It is also near E. Thunhergi, but differs from 

 it in having narrower leaves, and in the corolla-lobes.
