REVISION OF THE HAWAIIAN SPECIES OF CYRTANDRA 605 
for it as author, while Hillebrand himself published the same species 
under the name Cyrtandra latehrosa without mentioning his former 
manuscript name. On still another sheet we find for the same species 
still another name — Cyrtandra paradoxa. Again, a specimen in the 
herbarium at Vienna, No. 1991, marked Cyrtandra paludosa Gaud, 
var. a. longifolia Wawra, which is a synonym of Cyrtandra longifolia 
Hillebr. (in Clarke Monogr. 276. 1883), was selected by C. B. Clarke 
as the type for Hillebrand's manuscript name C. longifolia. 
It is the writer's desire to clear up all this confusion. He was 
in a position to examine the material which formed the basis for C. B. 
Clarke's monograph, and he also compared the same with Hillebrand's 
collection. 
The larger portion of Hillebrand's material was not known to C. 
B. Clarke, as it came into the possession of the Berlin Herbarium 
after Hillebrand's death. 
This paper is the first of a series on the genus Cyrtandra and con- 
tains a critical revision of the section Cylindrocalyces Hillebr. 
SECTION ONE: CYLINDROCALYCES Hillebr. Fl. Haw. Isl. 326. 1888 
Calyx campanulate, cylindrical or fusiform, five-cleft into unequal 
lobes, splitting laterally at last; corolla usually large, curved, bilabiate; 
flowers single or few, subumbellate to cymose; leaves mostly glabrous, 
or, when tomentose, usually so along the midrib and nerves under- 
neath, with blackish or dark brown to reddish hair, often thickly 
matted (C longifolia, var. degenerans). 
This section possesses now seven species, ten varieties, and four 
forms, of which one species, two varieties, and four forms, are here 
described for the first time. 
The species are closely related, for example: C. paludosa and C. 
longifolia; C. cyaneoides and C. waianuensis; C. grandiflora and 
C. filipes; C. oejiobarba var. petiolaris appears to come more or less 
close to C. longifolia var. calpidicarpa, in the long cylindrical fruit.

glabrous, somewhat fleshy; leaves opposite, elliptical-oblong, thick, 
chartaceous, acuminate at both ends, with crenate to serrate margins,
