Cyrtandra Lessoniana is inclined to be rather variable in size and shape 
of leaf as well as in size of corolla and calyx and length of peduncle and 
pedicels. There are a few instances in which an intermediate stage between 
C. Lessoniana and C. Pickeringii is exhibited in one or two specimens. To 
these must be referred the writer's no. 330 from the Koolau range, Punaluu 
mountains; in this plant the leaves are small and ovate, the calycine lobes 
are large and similar to those of C. Lessojtiana but not whitish and thin. 
The plant is a form of C. Lessoniana. The specimens from the Koolau, 
Punaluu Mountains, have narrower, lanceolate leaves, while Hitchcock's no. 
14108 from Kalihi has the broadest leaves. Hillebrand's var. (3 of this species 
is evidently only a form of it. Hitchcock's no. 14024 from the Waianae 
range (Schofield Barracks) would be referable to Hillebrand's var. jS. 
His varieties angustifolia and pachyphylla cannot well be retained as we have 
numerous intermediates with leaves ranging from linear-lanceolate to 
obovate-oblong to ovate leaves, with corresponding variation in the calycine 
lobes. The species is confined to the island of Oahu. Asa Gray's var. ^ 
(Proc. Amer. Acad. 5: 352. 1861) from West Maui does not belong here, 
but must be classed with forms of C. lysiosepala.
