I describe this from specimens without any name or habitat in 
the Madras herbarium, although not entered in Dr. Wallich’s Cata- 
logue. The flowers are very young, but appear to me to have the 
calyx of Herpestes, instead of being 4-sepaled as described by Rox- 
burgh. In other respects they agree exactly with his description. 
If he is right about the calyx, this character, together with the in- 
florescence, might serve to distinguish a new genus.
