One or two species of Stemonoporus are mountain plants ; 

 the remainder are all from the low country, and with 

 the exception of three monotypic genera — Pityranthe, 

 Gleniea, and Misckodon —which are found in the dry north 

 and east, the whole are natives of the damp luxuriant 

 districts in the south-western quarter of our island.

 India ; those marked with a ? are possibly Peninsular. The figures 

 in brackets refer to the number of Ceylon species.
