THE BOTANY OF THE KACHIN HILLS NORTH-EAST OF MYITKYINA. 22/ 
given in detail. The identiHcations have been made by Dr. Prain, 
except in the case of the orchids ; for identifying the majority of 
these and for checking the identifications of the remainder, we are 
under great obligations to Mr. R. Pantlingand to Sir George King. 
The field notes, localities and elevations are supplied by Lieutenant 
Pottinger, who is also responsible for those notes regarding species 
seen but not coliected that are given within square brackets ; some of 
these bracketed identifications, we would desire it to be understood, 
are tentative only, and in no case is any species thus mentioned 
provided with a serial number in the list or employed in discussing 
the probable affinities of the flora. The precise localities of the 
Garden collectors specimens are not given ; all are from within 
the Myitkyina district, though not necessarily from the immediate 
vicinity of the head-quarters of that district
