This species presents much variation, and the limits between it and 
allied species are not yet satisfactorily defined; so that here again I have 
endeavoured to follow Miquel. His type specimens are from Sumatra; 
the peduncles are solitary. The specimens from the Malay Peninsula 
which Sir Joseph Hooker put into this species seem to differ little from 
the Sumatran specimens excepting that the peduncles are almost always 
ternate. Bornean specimens collected by Beccari have solitary peduncles 
and a somewhat more robust habit. In Sumatra, Borneo, and the Malay 
Peninsula the specimens of S. subditus are readily separable on account 
of their narrower, less coriaceous leaves, and the ridges on the syncarpium 
being more irregular and sharper; but the specimens of S. subditus from 
Java which I have seen seem intermediate in their characters. Specimens 
from the Philippines, which are badly preserved, show that there is a 
form there which may belong to this species: some of its peduncles are 
axillary. Specimens from Cambodia also exist which may belong to this 
species. In Ceram it is represented by S. mitragynus, and in New Guinea 
by S. tenuiflorus.

MarastA.— Malacca (Griffith, nn. 2770, 2771). Borneo: Banjer- 
massin (Motley, n. 677); Sarawak (Haviland, n. 710); incert. loc. 
(Korthals, n. P), (Teysmann, n. 11581). Sumatra; Palambang (Miquel, 
n.?) Java (Teysmann). 
Most of the specimens of this species seem to agree together ; Teysmann, 
Borneo (ex Herb. Hort. Bot, Bog. n. 11581), has, however, much more 
elongate leaves measuring 12 by 4 cm., and the nerves in 9 pairs. The 
Javan specimens, as already stated, have broader and more coriaceous
