2(6) aureolum subsp. nov. 75^ 0^^^) A typo ovario eglanduloso divergit. There has been some confusion in the naming of plants similar to Rh. citriniflorum Balf. f. et Forrest, but lacking glands. They have been placed under various names?Rh. citriniflorum Balf. et Forrest, when stress has been laid upon the character of the indumentum ; Rh. himertum Balf. f. et Forrest or Rh.fulvastrtim Balf. f. et Forrest, when the absence of glands has been regarded as more significant. In aureolum there is variation to the same degree as in typical Rh. citriniflorum. Forrest 14503 (type of subsp. aureolum. S.E. Tibet, Tsarong on Ka-gwr-pu, Mekong-Salwin divide. Lat. 28? 25' N.
