The most southerly point in thedistribution of this species appears to beGrahamstown, in Cape-Colony; but this localityfor the plant is open to doubt, as it is based ononly one specimen, and there are none from anyother point south of the Transvaal. The remain-ing genus Quisqualis, represented by a solitary,shrubby or scandent species, is endemic to Nataland Zululand, and is characterised by the slenderlong-tubed flowers.
