A distinct and interesting plant with much branched shrubby habit, 
and small ie though otherwise See resembling Rungia in structure 
and in its scariously margined bracts. Dr. G. Lindau, however, who 
has recently been working at Cecio, and who has seen part of the 
d a place it near Duvernoia, E. Mey. (which is reduced to 
Adhatod “Genera Plantarum "). Both these genera are 
referred ó his tribe Odontonemee T. Bot. Jahrb. XVIII., p. 56), 
but to different subtribes, on account of certain characters of the braets, 
which latter would place our staat: near to Rungia. Mr. Lunt notes 
the flowers as white with some brown markings on the lower part of the 
corolla. The pollen is ellipsoidal and reticulated, with the exception of 
three broad smooth bands which do not meet at the ends, and in the 
centre of which the three pores are placed.
