136 R. H. CAMBAGE. 
Hypocotyl terete, at first pale green, becoming reddish- 
brown, 4 mm. to 2 cm. long, 1 mm. thick at base, ‘6 to °8 
mm. at apex. 
Cotyledons sessile, auricled, oblong, apex rounded, 5mm. 
long, 2—2°5 mm. broad, upperside at first brownish-green, 
becoming green, underside brownish-red, glabrous. 
Stem reddish to brownish-grey, scaly at base First 
internode ‘0 mm.; second to seventh 1 to 3 mm. 
Leaves—No. 1. Abruptly pinnate, petiole 2 to 4 mm., 
slightly channelled above, reddish, glabrous; leaflets two 
pairs, oblong-acuminate, 5 to 8 mm. long, 2to3 mm. broad, 
venation obscure, upperside green, underside red; rachis 
2to3 mm., glabrous, with terminal seta; stipules minute. 
No. 2. Abruptly bipinnate, (in one case simply pinnate 
with one pair of leaflets), petiole 7 mm. to 1°2 cm., reddish- 
brown, glabrous, with terminal seta; leaflets one to two 
pairs, irregularly pinnate, oblong-acuminate, the terminal 
pair sometimes obliquely obovate, 3°5 to 6 mm. long, 3 to4 
mm. broad, venation obscure, upperside green, underside 
red; rachis 3 to 5 mm., sometimes channelled above, 
glabrous, with terminal seta; stipules minute. 
No. 3. Abruptly bipinnate, petiole 1°7 to 3 cm., with 
sometimes a faint gland on upper margin; leaflets one or 
two pairs, up to 6 mm. long, 3 mm. broad, often obovate; 
rachis 4 to 8 mm. 
In two cases leaf No. 3 was simply pinnate, with one 
pair of abnormal leaflets 6 mm. to 1 cm. long, 4 to 5 mm. 
broad, as though a pinna had fused into a large leaflet. In 
one instance the large leaflet was divided at the apex, thus 
showing the terminals of two leaflets, the lower halves of 
which were fused. 
Nos. 4 to 6. Abruptly bipinnate, petiole 2°6 to 6 cm., in 
some cases slightly channelled above, sometimes with a
