THE VEGETATION OF THE DISTRICTS OF 
365 . Hewittia W. & A. 
Hewittia bicolor W. & A. ; H. S. 362 ; B. P. ii. 727. 
v. Jarad-kalmi . 
Recorded from Seram pore by Voigt; quite possibly, but requires 
to be verified ; native of India. 
366 . Jacquemontia Choisy. 
Jacquemontia coerulea Choisy ; B. P. ii. 728. 
In gardens generally ; native of Africa. 
367. Merremia Dennst. 
Merremia umbellata Hallier f. ; B. P„ ii. 730. Ipomoea platanifolia 
H. S. 359- 
A form of this species not distinguishable from the American 
variety of the plant, VAR. occidentals, has been reported by Voigt 
from Seram pore and met with by Kurz climbing on bushes on the 
banks of the Hughli, near Calcutta, probably, however, only as an 
escape from cultivation that has not persisted, for there is no recent 
gathering of the plant ; the Indian variety, VAR. orieiltalis —Ipo moea 
cymosa (H. S. 358) has not been found in our districts. 
* Merremia vitifolia Hallier f.; B. P. ii. 730. Ipomoea vitifolia H. 
S. 361. 
Occasionally in village-shrubberies. 
Merremia tridentata Hallier f. ; B. P. ii. 730. Ipomoea tridentata 
H. S. 355. 
Reported by Voigt from Serampore, but the record requires con- 
firmation ; common in Western Bengal and Behar, 
Merremia hastata Hallier f. ; B, P. ii. 730. Ipomoea filiformis 
H. S. 356.

S. 359- 
Banks of the Hughli, below Calcutta, rare ; Serampore, according 
to Voigt ; perhaps only an escape in our districts ; native of Eastern 
Asia.

Sundribuns. 
* Merremia emarginata Hallier f. ; B. P. ii. 730. Ipomoea gangetica
