188 THE JOUENAL OF INDIAN BOTANY


LEUOMIACEAE.

Leucomium aneurodictyon (CM.) Jaeg.

Dharwar District (7279b). Without fruit. Growing with Vesicul- ar ia Levieri. It has not, I believe, been recorded from the Asiatic continent, but is probably a plant of much wider distribution than that usually attributed to it (Sumatra, Java, Borneo) ; I have a plant from Australia, ex herb. Mitten, probably gathered by F Mueller, which I cannot separate from it, and it is probable that some of the species described from quite other parts of the world may have to be brought under it.

L. limpidum Thw. and Mitt, from Ceylon, differs in the synoicous inflorescence and in the leaves scarcely contracted when dry.

SEMATOPHYLLACEAE.

Trichostelium monostictum {Thw. and Mitt). Broth. Bark of fallen tree, Sampkhand (6441) c. fr.
