1. PARASHOREA STELLATA, Kurz in Journ. Asiat. Soc. Bengal, 
xxxix. 1870 (pars 2), 66; Pierre, Fl. For. Cochinch. fasc. 14, 
t. 224.—Shorea stellata, Dyer in Hook. f. Fl. Brit. Ind. i. 304; 
King in Journ. Asiat. Soc. Bengal, lxi. pars 2 (1893), 120.— 
Pl. II. figs. 11, 12. 
Lower Burma, scattered in evergreen forests; Perak; Cochin- 
china. 
Sepals valvate, tomentose outside, densely pubescent on the 
inside. Anthers hirsute; prolongation of connective short, obtuse; 
anterior anther-cells considerably shorter than the posterior. 
Ovary globose, prolonged into a cylindric furrowed style; no 
stylopodium. Radicle short, cotyledons petiolate, the outer 
concave, partly enclosing the inner, which is bifid, and encloses 
between its lobes the lignified placenta and the remains of disse- 
piments, the 5 abortive ovules being at the top of the placenta. 
Cells of cotyledons closely packed with small starch-grains, with 
a few oil-drops. 
2. P. LUCIDA, Kurz in Journ. Asiat. Soc. Bengal, xxxix. pars 2 
(1870), 66.—Shorea lucida, Mig. Fl. Ind. Bat. Suppl. 487. 
Western Sumatra. 
Tertiary nerves somewhat more prominent than in the other 
species; three wings of fruiting-calyx longer than the others. 
3. P.PLICATA,sp.nova. Arbor. Folia coriacea, adulta glabra, 
elliptica, inter nervos secundarios plicata, stipulis amplexicau- 
libus deciduis. Flores magni, pedicellati. Calycis segmenta 
anguste lanceolata, subvalvata. Stamina antheris linearibus 
glabris loculis posterioribus mucronatis, connectivo in processum 
longum fusiformem longe acuminatum producto. Ovarium in 
receptaculum semi-immersum, stylopodio elongato piloso, stylo 
filiformi exserto glabro. Fructus calycis segmentis elongatis 
&quilongis. 
Luzon (Vidal, nn. 76, 990, 2033). 
Stipules large. Leaves marked by a distinct fold between the 
secondary nerves, similar to what is seen in many species of 
Dipterocarpus. In the terminal bud the young leaves are 
completely enclosed within the amplexicaul stipules, and the 
tender leaf at that stage consists almost entirely of the closely 
approximate secondary nerves. Flowers 1 in. long, on thick, 
when dry, furrowed pedicels, which are half the length of sepals.
