19,3 Merrill: Burman’s Flora Indica 383 
This is the basis of the well-known Andrographis paniculata 
(Burm. f. ) Nees. 
PERISTROPH E Nees 
PERISTROPH E HYSSOPIFOLIA (Burm. f.) comb. nov. 
Dianthera hyssopifolia Burm. f. FI. Ind. (1768) 11, t. 5, f. 2. 
“Habitat in Java.” 
Justicia salicifolia Blume ex Steud. Nomencl. ed. 2 1 (1841) 839. 
Peristrophe salicifolia Hassk. Cat. Hort. Bogor. (1844) 152. 
The description and excellent figure clearly indicate that Bur- 
man’s species is the same as the one later described by Blume. 
Peristrophe acuminata Nees, P. blumeana Nees, and Justicia 
roxburghiana Blume are probably synonyms of the same species. 
CLINACANTHUS Nees 
CLIN ACANTHUS NUTANS (Burm. f.) Lindau in Engl. Bot. Jahrb. 18 
(1894) 63. 
Justicia nutans Burm. f. FI. Ind. (1768) 10, t. 5, f. 1. “Habitat 
in Java.” 
Clinacanthus burmanni Nees in DC. Prodr. 11 (1847) 511. 
Justicia fulgida Blume Bijdr. (1825) 784. 
A well-known species extending from Siam to Hainan, the 
Malay Peninsula, Borneo, and Java. 
JUSTICIA Houstoun 
JUSTICIA GENDARUSSA Burm. f. FI. Ind. (1768) 10; Linn. f. Suppl. 
(1781) 85. “Crescit in Malabara, Amboina & Java.” 
A common and well-known species of wide distribution in the 
Indo-Malayan region. 
* JUSTICIA MORETI AN A Burn. f. FI. Ind. (1768) 10. “Crescit in variis 
locis Indiae arenosis.” 
This is typified by Adhatoda flore solitario, etc., Burm. Thes. 
Zeyl. (1737) t. 3, f. 1, and is clearly a Justicia. Trimen, FI. 
Ceyl. 3 (1895) 335, states that the figure, although good, does 
not agree with any known Ceylon species. The synonym “More- 
tiana Rumph. 6, p. 53, t. 23,” must be excluded, as it represents 
Ruellia repens Linn. 
RUBIACEAE 
OLDENLANDIA Linnaeus 
OLDENLANDIA CORYMBOSA Linn. Sp. PI. (1753) 119. 
Oldenlandia tenuifolia Burm. f. FI. Ind. (1768) 37, t. H, f. 1. “Hab- 
itat in Java.” 
This appears to be a form of Oldenlandia corymbosa Linn., 
with the inflorescences reduced to a single long-pedicelled flower,
