versus 1-1'5 em. inter se distaniibus. Folia elliptico-lanceolata, apice 
obtusa, basi acuta, usque ad 16 em. longa (petiolo exeluso) et 6°5 em. lata, 
membranacea, glaberrima, integra, costa supra anguste canaliculata, nervis 
lateralibus utrinque 9-13 pagina inferiore prominentibus superiore sub- 
prominentibus marginem versus curvatis, nervis transversis inconspicuis ; 
petioli plerumque circiter 2 em. longi, rarius usque ad 4:5 em. longi, glabri ; 
stipulæ intrapetiolares, in vaginam connate, 2 mm. longe, truncatæ. 
Inflorescentiw terminales, laxæ, e paniculis vel racemis radiatis constitute ; 
pedunculi circiter 5'5 em. longi, glabri ;. pedicelli usque ad 1 ст. longi, 
glabri; bracteæ minutissimæ. Calycis tubus cylindricus, 1 em. longus, 
medio 2:5 mm. diametro, superne leviter ampliatus ; limbus glaber, patens, 
ampliatus, usque ad 2:5 em. diametro, 5-lobatus, lobis rotundis. Corolle 
tubus cylindrieus, 3:5 em. longus, medio 2 mm. diametro, superne leviter 
ampliatus, extra glaber, intra leviter pubescens ; limbus 5-lobatus, lobis 
lineari-oblongis obtusis 5*5 mm. longis 2 mm. latis glabris. Stamina linearia, 
filamentis 1:5 em. longis pubescentibus, antheris 4 mm. longis. Recep-

CALYCOSIA PUBIFLORA, A. Gray т Proc. Amer. Acad. iv. (1860) р. 306 ; 
Seemann, Fl. Vit. p. 133. 
Nandarivatu, by the road through “the farm ? to Suva, with young flowers 
Dec. 2nd, 1906, im Thurn, 298. 
Distr. Fiji (Viti Levu, Taviuni). 
A tree or tall shrub, 6 m. high. 
The flowers are much younger and the inflorescences much more con- 
densed than in the type specimens at Kew. The corollas are only 2 to 3 mm. 
in length and quite enclosed in the calyx. The petioles are somewhat 
longer than in the type, but the venation, texture, and shape of the blades 
agree exactly. 
PSYCHOTRIA EFFUSA, Turrl. P. sulphurew, Seemann, affinis, sed foliis 
acuminatis, pedicellis longioribus, corolle tubo breviore differt. 
Arbor parva (ex im Thurn) vel Папа (ex Gibbs); rami teretes, glabri. 
Folia oblongo-lanceolata, acuminata, basi cuneata, usque ad 10 em. longa
