46 SIR DIETRICH BRANDIS—AN ENUMERATION 
2 majoribus oblanceolatis 3-nerviis venis transversis parum 
obliquis. 
New Guinea; Sogeri region, 2000 ft. alt. (H. O. Forbes, 
n. 373). 
The blade of leaf is 4 in. long, 24 in. broad ; petiole ? in. long. 
Fruit finely but densely tomentose, apiculate, crowned by the 
indurated stylopodium and 3-4 styles. Larger segments of 
fruiting-calyx 3 in. smaller š in. long, tube j in. diam. Seed 
apparently not quite ripe, radicle short, cotyledons reniform, the 
outer flat, concave, enclosing the inner, which is folded and 
crumpled. By the shape of leaves, the campanulate fruiting- 
calyx, and the structure of the seed this species is closely allied to 
Anisoptera costata, Korthals, which, however, has leaves pubescent 
beneath. A. polyandra, Blume, also has a campanulate fruiting- 
calyx, but one of the 3 longitudinal nerves of the larger segments 
is close to the margin, and the smaller segments are much 
smaller. Moreover, the leaves are described by Blume as “ovalia 
vel ovali-oblonga.” The unnamed species described by Dyer has 
a yellow pubescence of fruiting-calyx similar to this species, but 
the calyx-tube is described as spheroidal.

The external characters of this genus are well known; the 
internal structure is, as previously mentioned, so peculiar, that 
I desire to discuss it at some length. Through the pith of a leaf- 
bearing branch runs a main resin-duct, and this main duct gives 
off branches, which enter the petioles and axillary buds. The 
process may be most easily explained by reference to D. lanceo- 
lata, Burck. A series of transverse sections made at different 
points of an internode is represented on Plate I., the levels 
at which the sections were made being indicated on that inter- 
node (fig. 17). These sections are a selection from many 
hundreds which were made and examined, when studying the 
course of leaf-traces and resin-duets in that internode. Fig. 118 
(C, D, E, F) of Engler’s Natürl. Pflanzenfamilien, iii. 6, may 
also be referred to. Fig. 1 represents the base of the internode 
and of a side branch still attached to it, In both cases the main
