Interestingly, for once i thought I found one atleast Hortonia augustifolia Trim. Syst. Cat. Fl. Pl. Ceylon 75 (1885).
So just to crosscheck, I looked into the protologue, Systematic Catalogue of the Flowering Plants and Ferns Indigenous to or Growing Wild in Ceylon.by Trimen available on: http://www.archive.org/stream/cu31924000414510#page/n83/mode/2up Please go to page 83 on the slider which takes you to page 75 and find out yourself!!!
