404 The Turaee and Outer Mountains of Kumaoon. [May, 



Kalanchoe varians : " Noonoo." '* Bukul-puta." 



And, generally, what have been already noted in the descent from 

 Nynee Tal ; but in the shady dell of the Buliya, between Jeeolee and 

 Kushainee, we hare Wallichia (Harina,) oblongifolia, Griffith ; Ground 

 Palm, " Kala-ounsa." 



Sabia campanulata. 



And a little lower, between Jeeolee and Dogaree, Thunbergia coe- 

 cinea covers every tree and bush with its dark stems and leaves : it is in 

 full bloom all the winter, with innumerable drooping racemes of in- 

 tensely red blossoms. 



Neither this nor the Wallichia Palms, are to be met from the Buliya 

 to Dhikolee : the former is, therefore, in all probability,* their N. W. 

 limit. Towards the Snowy Range Lieut. R. Strachey found the Walli- 

 chia on the Ramgunga, within 25 miles of the glaciers.
