ALABASTRA BORNEENSIA. 247 



mens present some heads in full anthesis and others with 

 mature achenes, from an examination of which it is very 

 evident that the plant belongs in the genus Lagenophora. The 

 species is apparently most closely allied to the. only other one 

 known from the Malayan region, namely Lagenophora billar- 

 dieri, Cass., from which it is readily distinguishable by its 

 much narrower, differently shaped, entire, glabrous leaves, its 

 somewhat leafy scapes, and its differently shaped achenes.
