1848.] The Turaee and Outer Mountains of Kumaoon. 41 1 



The vegetation of the Gagur Pass is nearly identical with that of 

 Nynee Tal : the following additions owe their existence most probably 

 to an imperfect survey of the latter. 



Astilbe rivularis. 



Polygonatum multiflorum : Solomon's seal. 



Leycesteria formosa : " Nulkurroo." " Sounjla." 



Stauntonia latifolia and angustifolia : " Gophla." 



Millingtonia pungens : " Gurdar." «' Khurus." 



Staphylea Emodi. 



Eurya acuminata : " Dewra." From 3000 (Kotah Pass) to 7500 feet 



Oxyramphis macrostyla. 



Ulmus virgata : " Chumburmuya." 



Paris polyphylla. 



Sempervivum. 



Sedum multicaule. 



Polygonum Sinense. 



Ophelia paniculata. 



Aplotaxis canescens. 



Calanthe plantaginea. Hyacinth Orchis. 



Gymnogramme caudata : " Ooneena." 



Michelia Kisopa: " Bun-chumpa ;" a large tree flowering September, 

 October : Dr. Wallich says April, May, in Nepal. 



In the shady dell at Jureepanee we have the Gyrandra laurina ? 

 " Rukt-chundun," " Rutungulia," before alluded too ; and here also the 

 rocks and trees are covered with the beautiful Clemates Nepalensis D. 

 C. montana of Don, flowering at mid-winter, each blossom with its 

 involucrum. Its range appears to be from 6000 to 7000 feet, growing 

 by and in streams— apparently a rare plant, as I have only found it 

 here and at Devi Dhoora. Dr. Royle mentions choor, wrukta, &c. 

 9000 — 10,000 feet as its site, and May as its flowering season — referring 

 most probably to the Clemates barbatella of Mr. Edgeworth. 



The western face of the Sat-choolia group, from about 6500 ft. is 

 covered chiefly with Reeanjoak, Quercus lanuginosa, reaching up to 

 about 8000 feet : where it is superseded by Q. dilatala, fringing the 

 northern crests and declivities: associated with ash, holly, maple, 

 Symplocos, crateegi folia, Millingtonia dillenifolia, Kadsura grandiflora, 

 Marsdenia mollis, and the clambering Xanthoxylon oxyphyllum.
