STOP 161 - A.P.: MI. E. KHAMMAN,
225 METERS, II-6-62
700 specimens.

Camp situated in the compound
of the rest house at THANIKALLA.
Surrounding landscape - disturbed
agricultural land with occasional
patches of mangos and dry,
weedy fields. Some irrigated
land near tanks or ponds, though
conditions were otherwise quite
dry. Warm evening (75° F); a
breeze came up by 9 P.M.,
however, and light collecting
dropped off.

STOP 162 - A.P.: 4 MI. W. KHAMMAM,
100 METERS, II-7-62
150 specimens.

In the Khammam area
the so called coastal plain
is characterized by many
hillocks of granite, outcropping
steeply from gently rolling
flatlands. The plain itself is
much more dry and less farmed

than the regions nearer the
coast. These specimens were
collected under stones on the steep
slopes of one hillock near
Khammam; the vegetation consisted
of clumps of grass between the
rocks and scattered
thorn bushes 2 to 3 feet high.
The ground was dry in most
places, slightly moist below the
surface in the shade of large
boulders.

STOP 163 - A.P.: 2 MI. W. NARKATPALLI,
300 METERS, II-7-62
400 specimens.

Isolated granite hill in rolling
plain countryside. Dry area,
sunny exposure. Vegetation -
low bushes scattered among
large granite [illegible]; clumps
of grass here and there. Soil -
granite decomposition type -
sandy. Surrounding flatland -
dry, weedy fields, some of
which were tilled and planted
