In Hupeh this latter name is applied to Arisema heterophyllum, BI. ‘The Ichang gazetteer says that it was formerly sent as tribute ‘ from Hupeh to the Emperor. The root is occasionally used as a drug, but it does not apparently enter much into ordinary commerce. Porter Smith, ‘‘ Contr. Mat. feng prs al p. 46, wrongly identifies the drug as Caladium.

Nat ‘ by the single ovule and bilabiate aril, Lam f jars hss two” 2 filaments and a glabrous rachis, which latter character is well seen in the type. A confusion of specimens in the Herbarium of Leyden is not pro- bable, as the type sent agrees as far as it goes entirely with the descrip- tion in Korthals’ paper. The only probable suggestion seems to be that Korthals was mistaken in attributing to his plant characters which would bring it clearly to Connaracew. He may have mistaken a second abortive ovule for an aril. I, therefore, am of opinion that the pubescent inflorescence, and the want of scales at the base of. the longer filaments. Such scales are present in a closely similar plant collected by Beccari in Sumatra (No. 900); also No. 2951 of Beccari from Sarawak, a similar plant, has the scales, but in a very rudimen- stitute a character of generic valu ut e concede t scandens belongs really to the genus proposed by Korthuls, and if we assu that his assertion that Dapania has solitary ovules and . 1.

Although I have no hesitation in referring this to Aublet’s i eee fectly known and very inadequately described genus Touroulia, I a b gured by e clear that Touroulia ought not to be referred to Quiina. Both Mons. Planchon and Triana (in Ann. Sc. Nat. sér. iv. 15, 315) and Dr. Engler (in Mart. Flor. Bras. xii. pt. i. 485) agree as to this, though the’ material in their hands was very imperfect.
