1849.] The Turaee and Outer Mountains of Kumaoon. 607 



Podolotus Hosackioides. 



Crotolaria anthylloides, to 8000 feet. 



Lespedeza elegans. 



Flemingia, (bracteata, Roxb. nearly,) a procumbent shrub with sim- 

 ple leaves and Dicerma, like inflorescence : flowers white, streaked 

 with pink : everywhere at 6000 — 8000 feet on sunny exposures, from 

 the Sutlege to the Kalee. 



Flemingia procumbens. Procumbent, with deep red flowers and 

 tuberous edible roots, very common from 5500 to 8500 feet ; also Simlah, 

 Kussowlee, Mussooree. 



Shuteria involucrata. 



Phaseolus scaber. 



Vicia tenera. 



Pachyrhizus angulatus ? Procumbent, twining, with pink flowers, 

 and large tuberous root. 



Trigonella gracilis. This plant, with Argyrolobium roseum and 

 (cytisus) flaccidum, is everywhere at Nynee Tal in the rainy season, 

 apparently limited to the limestone rock : at least all three disappear 

 the moment we reach the greenstone of the Gagur, with identical eleva- 

 tion and exposure, &c. Thymus serpyllum, on the contrary, does not 

 here make its appearance till we have left both these rocks, and entered 

 the micaceous slate district at Ramgur. 



Androsace sarmentosa (not lanuginosa, which is not found under 

 10,000 or 11,000 feet.) 



Androsace rotundifolia. Hardwick, pink. 



Lysimachia debilis and alternifolia. 



Sedum multicaule, pauciflorum and rosulatum (Edgeworth, not py- 

 riforme.) 



Tillsea pentandra, to 8000 feet. 



Saxifraga Brunonis covers the crags of Cheenur, facing the lake, from 

 7000 to 8000 feet. 



Drosera peltata (lunata, auct,) a New Holland plant. Don. 



Astilbe rivularis. Abundant in the northern glens of Cheenur, &c, 

 and as low as 5500 feet at Shamkhet. This plant, which resembles 

 Spircea Aruncus, oscillates between the Saxifrageous and Rosaceous 

 orders, and both in Royle's Illustrations (203, 226) and Don's Prodro- 

 mus, does duty in each cohort, being Spiraea triternata of Wallich, S.
