A SCIENTIFIC EXPEDITION TO TEMENGOH. 
Corolla nearly an inch long glabrous white, lower lip 
oblong in outline, longer than the upper lobes, lobes 
rounded. Stamens glabrous, anther cells divaricate at 
base. Style pubescent, stigma large orbicular. Fruit 
not seen. Only one plant found in flower, in damp 
woods at Temengoh. 
This species resembles in habit C. pilosa, Bl. but is 
remarkable for the abundant and dense red-brown hair 
on the bracts, calyx and nerves, and the bracts are con- 
nate into a cup, as in C. cupulata, ete. 
C. rotundifolia, n. sp. 
Stem about 3 inches tall brown hairy. Leaves broad- 
ly ovate rotundate margins serrate coarsely, base cordate 
sub coriaceous above glabrous, minutely punciate, 
nerves beneath elevated 5 pairs with prominent trans-

felted hair, as is the midrib, lamina 6 inches long and 
as wide; petiole 3-6 inches long, covered with brown 
felted hairs. Capitula deflexed on brown-hairy pedun- 
cles 3 inches long. Capitulum over an inch through. 
Basal bracts much shorter lanceolate cuspidate hairy 
chiefly on the edges and tip 3 inch long. Calyx ? inch 
long tubular brown hairy, with short linear subulate 
points. Corolla tube little longer covered with white 
silky hairs, limb white with brown markings in the

ments glabrous slightly flexuous; anthers elliptic with 
a tuft of hairs at the base. Style rather stout pubes-
