REVISION OF THE HAWAIIAN SPECIES OF CYRTANDRA 609 
1.5 cm. ; flowers solitary or two, in the axils of the leaves, on a peduncle 
of 3 mm.; pedicels 6-15 mm.; calyx thin, slightly pubescent, as in 
C. paludosa typica; fruit ovate-oblong, 10 mm., tipped with the per- 
sistent style. 
Kauai: on the ridge west of the Hanapepe river, elevation 3,000 
feet, and on the plateau above Waimea 4,000 ft. elevation. Heller, 
no. 2495; forests of Kaholuamano, above Waimea, flowering, March 
3-10, 1909, Rock no. 2280 in herb. College of Hawaii; flowering and 
fruiting Sept. 1909, Rock, no. 5600 in herb. College of Hawaii. 
Heller says: "It belongs to the group of which C. paludosa is the 
type." 
In fact it is merely a variety of C. paludosa, differing from it in its 
smaller, entire leaves and arborescent habit, otherwise the same. 
Heller states that it may be identical with Wawra's Cyrtandra paludosa 
var. arborescens. This is however not the case. The writer was able 
to examine Wawra's plant, through the courtesy of Dr. Alexander 
Zahlbruckner of Vienna. Wawra's plant is now C. longifolia Hillebr. 
var. arborescens C. B. Clarke, and is identical with Hillebrand's C. 
paludosa var. integrifolia. 
Cyrtandra paludosa Gaud. var. haupuensis Rock n. var. 
A small bush with thick angular branches; young shoots pubes- 
cent; leaves opposite, elliptical-olbong, subcoriaceous, dark green 
above, light brown underneath, glabrous on both sides, subentire, 
with a slightly undulate margin and faint crenation, 15-22 cm. long, 
3.5-5 cm. wide, acute at the apex, gradually narrowing at the base 
into broadly auriculate margins; petiole i cm. long; inflorescence 
axillary; peduncle 1-2 mm., 3-4-flowered ; pedicels 10-12 mm.; 
calyx thin, glabrous, caducous, nearly as long as the tube of the 
corolla; fruits (immature) cylindrical-oblong, acuminate at the apex. 
Kauai: Lihue, near the summit of the Haupu range, flowering and 
fruiting March 18, 1909, Rock, type no. 2473 in herb. College of Hawaii. 
A very distinct variety, nearly worthy of specific rank; it differs 
from the species in its robust habit, subcoriaceous, subentire, auricu- 
late leaves, and very short-peduncled inflorescence.
