Comment/Acknowledgements: The basis of this record is in Mukerjee (l.c.). Subsequently, the Hooper specimen has not been found at Kew and Jafri in his Flora of Karachi merely repeated Mukerjee. It, as with the previous species, seems an improbable, but not impossible, record.
Map Location: G-4 Karachi, D. Hooper (K - not traced).
