Abstract
S. SIDDIQUI has recently described1 the isolation of three new colouring matters, occurring together as a reddish dust on the leaves of Didymocarpus pedicellata. In view of this publication, we now place on record the preliminary results of work in progress on the constitution of a colouring matter different from, but perhaps related to, Siddiqui's, and occurring as a deposit on the leaves and inflorescences of Streptocarpus Dunnii Mast., a member of a genus closely related to Didymocarpus2.
