Campylostemon, Anders., "Journ. Linn. Soc." vii. (1864) 44. — 

 Natal. Leaves ovate, acuminate, nearly glabrous ; peduncles 

 axillary, shorter than the leaves, few- flowered ; flowers small, 

 white, the lower lip purple-spotted. Only of botanical interest. 



furcata, Jacq. (fig. " Sch." i. 2, t. 3). — Mexico. Leaves villous, 

 ovate-lanceolate ; flowers axillary, solitary, 1 inch long, violet, 

 .ringent; upper lobe arched, slightly bifid at apex; lower lip 

 ample, 3-lobed, the centre lobe reticulated with white. This is 

 occasionally met with in stoves, but it is hardly worth growing. 

 J. peruviana, " Bot. Mag." t. 430, is very similar, but with the 

 flowers clustered in the axils ; it is, perhaps, only a form of 

 this species. 



Gendarussa, L., " Suppl." 35; (fig. "Bot. Reg." t. 635).— India 

 and Burma, and much cultivated there. Shrubby, leaves lanceolate, 

 glabrous ; spikes up to 5 inches, terminal, often paniculate, the 

 lower clusters of flowers distant ; bracts linear, small ; flowers 

 {, inch, nearly glabrous, white with purple spots. 



geniculata = Dianthera secunda. 



marmorata, Nichols. " Diet." = Eranthemum marmoratum. 

 pedunculosa = Dianthera americana. 



peruviana, " Cav. Ic." p. 17, t. 28 ; (fig. " Bot. Mag." t. 430).— 

 Peru. Stems pubescent ; leaves petioled, ovate-lanceolate, hairy 

 above ; flowers violet, the lower lip reticulated with white veins, 

 clustered in the axils. 



quadrifaria, Nees, "Wall., PI. As. Rar." iii. 105. — Assam. 

 Leaves elliptic ; flowers in dense, axillary clusters ; bracts ^ inch,

ventricosa, Wall., "PL As. Bar." i. 80, t. 93; (fig. " Bot. Mag." 

 t. 2766). — Burma. Leaves elliptic, glabrous; spikes terminal, 

 3 inches long ; bracts green, orbicular, about | inch long, 

 imbricate, usually 3-flowered ; flowers § inch, white, rose-spotted. 

 Lankesteria. — Tall plants allied to Daedalacanthus, with dense terminal 

 spikes of red or yellow flowers. 



Barteri, Hooker (fig. "Bot. Mag." t. 5533).— West Africa. Leaves 

 ovate-oblong, acuminate, narrowed at base, up to 8 inches long ; 

 spikes terminal ; bracts imbricate, ovate, acuminate, nervose, 

 puberulous and ciliate ; calyx segments inch, linear, long- 

 ciliate, half the length of corolla tube ; corolla tube hairy. 



elegans, DC, "Prod." xi. 447 as Eranthemum— Tropical West 

 Africa. Leaves elliptic, acuminate at both ends ; short-petioled, 

 up to 9 inches by 2} ; spikes terminal, strobiliform, about 6 inches 

 long by 1 inch broad ; bracts laxly overlapping, 1 inch long by 

 \ inch broad, acute, shining, glabrous ; sepals J inch, softly hairy; 

 corolla orange-yellow, tube H inch; lobes | inch, obovate. 

 Common in cultivation.
