and capsule, natural size, from 



Haernocharis integerrima, Koorders and Valeton, has leaves 

 in shape like those of G. lanceifolia, but thicker, with the veins 

 obscured. It occurs in the mountains throughout Java between 

 2,400 and 7,000 feet. 



H. serrata, Koorders and Yaleion, is contrasted by the authors 

 with the above, and said to differ in its more prominent serrations 

 near its leaf apex, its larger flowers, and hairy style (sic!). It 

 was obtained on Gunong Pulasari in Java. 



Haernocharis aromatica, though said to be near H. vul- 

 canica, by Miquel, possesses a less marked montane appearance. 

 Its leaves are very minutely subcallously serrulate and have veins 

 which can be traced by being depressed above. No statement is 

 made of the absence of style. If a Gordonia the description appears 

 to place it here. 



It Was got in two varieties in Western and Southern Sumatra.
