All fcho Pemk chilI Malacca BpecimGng agree exactly wifch D. muitijiiga Grab,, 
and that ill turn does not tliffor even aa a variety from D. nifa Grab., witli tlie type 
of which Curtis' Langkawi specimens and the Andaman form exactly coincido. 
Tlieae two forms diflCer from tlie Upper Bai'ma and Himalsiyan plajit iu having 
fewer- flci, laxer panicles, with a glabrescont instead of a downy calyx. Tho poda aro^ 
hovccvor, identical in both. It has hoen uaual to qaote Ro,\hnrgli withonfc qufilifioa- 
tion as the nuthority for this spocies, in fl]>itfl of the fact that he haa deEcribed as 
belonging to it, the fmit that belongs to D. MUlctdi. And it hna been also uaaal to 
cito Derris jiinnata Lour, as this plant, overlooking the fact that Derrim pinnnta 
has ghibroua loafieta and, preatiiiiablj'ii only monoapermoas pods. The writer has 
not aeon LDureiro's original specimens ; bia description of D, pinnate, liowover, 
certainly applies more aptly to I>. MUlettii than it doaa to D. tamarindifoliat iv)uch 
moreover doea not appear to have s-ach a root as Loaroiro describes. In any cm& 
nntil specimens cat be prodaoed, D, pinnata should be treated aa indetcrroin- 
ablo.
