C. hyssopifolia (Hyssop-leaved).* fl. in terminal cymes; upper lip clear yellow, about half the width of the lower, and meeting closely to it; lower lip clear canary-yellow above, nearly white beneath. May to August. l. sessile, linear-lanceolate, sub-acute, entire. h. 1ft. to 2ft. Chili. Shrubby. (B. M. 5548.)

C. integrifolia (entire-leaved). Synonymous with C. rugosa.

C. lobata (lobed). fl. yellow, disposed in erect, loosely-branched cymes; lip curiously folded on itself, and spotted on the inner surface. l. palmately lobed. h. 9in. Peru, 1877. Herbaceous species. (B. M. 6330.)

C. Pavonii (Pavon's).* fl. rich yellow and brown, in large terminal clusters; upper lip small; lower lip large, widely gaping. l. perfoliate, the petioles connected by a broad wing, running all their length; blade broadly ovate, coarsely serrate-dentate; both sides covered with soft down. h. 2ft. to 4ft. Herbaceous. (B. M. 4525.)

C. pinnata (pinnate). fl. sulphur-coloured; peduncles twin or tern, panicled. July to September. l. pinnate; leaflets or segments toothed, lower ones pinnatifidly toothed. h. 2ft. to 3ft. Peru, 1773. Annual, clothed with clammy hairs. (B. M. 41.)

C. pisacomensis (Pisacomanese). fl. rich orange-red, large; lower lip of corolla so bent upwards as to close the mouth; cymes produced from all the upper axils, forming long leafy panicles. l. ovate, obtuse, coarsely crenate. h. 3ft. Peru, 1868. A sub-shrubby perennial, of strong, erect habit.

C. plantaginea (Plantain-like).* fl. yellow; lower lip of corolla large, hemispherical; upper one small, bifid; scapes generally two to three-flowered, pilose. August. l. radical, ovate, rhomboid, rosulate, serrated. Plant herbaceous, stemless, pubescent. h. 1ft. Chili, 1826. (B. M. 2805.)

C. purpurea (purple). fl., corolla of an uniform reddish-violet, rather small; corymbs terminal, many-flowered. July to September. l. wrinkled, hispid; radical ones cuneate-spathulate, serrated, quite entire behind, petiolate, acutish; cauline ones cordate, decussate, with a few long scattered hairs on their surfaces. Stems herbaceous, many from the same root. h. 1ft. Chili, 1826. There are several hybrids between this and other species. (B. M. 2775.)

C. rugosa (wrinkled). fl. yellow; panicles terminal, corymbose, pedunculate. August. l. ovate-lanceolate, or lanceolate, denticulated, wrinkled, opaque, rusty beneath; petioles winged, connate. h. 1ft. to 1½ft. Chili, 1822. Shrubby species. SYN. C. integrifolia. (B. R. 744.) Two varieties of this are angustifolia, and viscosissima.

C. scabiosæfolia (Scabious-leaved).* fl., corolla pale yellow; lower lip large, ventricose; peduncles terminal, corymbose. May to October. l., lower ones pinnate; superior ones pinnatifid, three-lobed, or simple, the terminal segment always the largest. Plant rather hairy. Peru, 1822. Evergreen trailer. (B. M. 2405.)

C. tenella (small). fl. golden yellow, with orange-red spots within the lower lip; corymbs few-flowered. l. opposite, ovate, acuminated. h. 6in. Chili, 1873. Hardy, herbaceous. (B. M. 6231.)

C. thyrsiflora (thyrse-flowered). fl. yellow, downy inside; thyrse terminal, crowded; peduncles compound, umbellate. June. l. linear, attenuated at both ends, serrate-toothed, sessile, 2in. long, and two lines broad. h. 1ft. to 2ft. Chili, 1827. Shrubby, clammy. (B. M. 2915.)

C. violacea (violet).* fl., corolla pale violet, spotted with deeper violet beneath; lip spreading in a campanulate manner; peduncles terminal by threes, corymbose; pedicels one to two-flowered. June. l. petiolate, ovate-lanceolate, coarsely serrated, white beneath. h. 2ft. Chili, 1853. Shrubby. (B. M. 4929.) See Fig. 322.

CALCEOLATE. Shaped like a slipper or round-toed shoe.

CALDASIA. See Galipea heterophylla.

CALDCLUVIA (named after Alexander Caldcleugh, F.R.S. and F.L.S., who collected and sent to this country many plants from Chili). ORD. Saxifrageæ. A greenhouse evergreen tree. Flowers panicled, terminal. Leaves opposite, simple, serrate, glabrous; pedicels jointless; stipules twin, sub-falcate, toothed, caducous. It thrives well in a compost of peat and loam, and may be propagated by cuttings of the half-ripened shoots, planted in sand, under a hand glass, and placed in a very gentle bottom heat.

C. paniculata (panicled). fl. white. June. Chili, 1831.

CALEA (from kalos, beautiful; referring to the flowers). ORD. Compositæ. A genus of stove evergreen herbs or small shrubs. Pappus hairy; receptacle paleaceous; involucre imbricated. They thrive in a compost of peat and loam. Side shoots root readily, if placed in sand, under glass, and with bottom heat; seeds may be sown in March. Warmer parts of New World.

CALEANA (named after G. Caley, Superintendent of the Botanical Garden, St. Vincent). ORD. Orchideæ. A genus of greenhouse terrestrial orchids, natives of Australia. Flowers few, greenish-brown; column broad, thin, concave; sepals and petals narrow, reflexed; lip posticous, peltate, unguiculate, highly irritable. In fine weather, or if left undisturbed, this lip bends back, leaving the column uncovered; but in wet weather, or if the plant is shaken, the lip falls over the column, securely fastening it. Leaves solitary, radical. They are of easy culture, in a compost of fibry peat, lumpy loam, and a little charcoal.

B. major (greater). fl. green-brown. June. 1810.

C. minor (less). fl. green-brown. June. 1822.

C. nigrita (blackish-flowered). fl. dark.
