Hongkong Herb. 2448. 
The tree is closely allied to M. fusca, though readily distinguished, even at 
a distance, by its leaves. The specific name commemorates the chief of the 
American mission in Yenping, to whose kindness I was indebted for the 
opportunity of visiting this interesting garden in the city, as well as for 
numerous other hospitable actions.
