Plate XXII. Infi, of Curcuma domestica Val. from a very poor, rather 

 abnormal, specimen grown from rhizomes of „kunyit" sent from 

 Singapore, Fl. Sept. 1917. The figure is rather different from the normal 

 type, by the very short spike, and the living spike is peculiar by the 

 greenish white tinge of the coma. The flowers are however quite 

 similar to that of the Java specimens, even in the characteristic spurs, 

 and the very long free parts of the bracts are typical.
