OF THE GENUS MILLETTIA. 135 
Distributed chiefly over Burma, Siam, and E. China. M. pulchra extends 
to N.B. India and M. rubiginosa and M. splendens are confined to the S. of 
India. 9 spp., n. 1-11. 
It is connected with the rest of the genus through the Hurybotrye. 
2. EvRYBOTRY JE, Dunn, sect. nov. Frutices scandentes vel rarius vagantes. 
Foliola stipellata.  Panieule ssepius terminales, late. Flores singuli, in 
racemos longos divergentes dispositi. Petala glabra vel sericea ; vexillum 
exaurieulatum. Stamina diadelpha. Discus sepissime prominens, cylin- 
drieus. Ovarium basi sepius attenuatum. Legumen ssepius compressum. 
Extends over Mid and South China, Upper Burma, and Tonkin, with 
M. japonica in Japan and M. cinerea in N.E. India. 12 spp., n. 12-23. 
In its inflorescence it is allied to the Bracteat and through M. japonica 
with Wistaria, the large-seeded M. cinerea connects it with the Maero- 
sperme, and М. Dorwardi and M. sericosema having obscurely auriculate 
standards form a transition to the sections with that character fully 
developed. 
9 A. AUSTRO-MILLETTIA, Dunn, sect. nov. Frutices swpissime scandentes. 
Foliola stipellata. Paniculee terminales. Flores singuli, in racemos diver- 
gentes dispositi. Petala sericea; vexillum auriculatum, Stamina dia- 
delpha. Discus nullus. Legumen crassum, lignosum. 
Confined to Australasia, occurring only in Queensland, Northern New 
South Wales, and in Norfolk Island. Spp. 3, n. 234-23 с. 
Its affinity is with the Lurybotrye, from which it differs in its auriculate 
standard and thick woody pods. 
3. BnacrEATA, Dunn, sect. nov. Frutices scandentes. Foliola stipellata. 
Panicule terminales. Flores singuli, in racemos longos dispositi, longe 
bracteati. Petala glabra; vexillum exauriculatum. Stamina diadelpha. 
Discus tubularis. Ovarium stipitatum. Legumen longum, glabrum ; endo- 
carpum separabile, papyraceum. 
S. India to Philippines. 8р. 1, n. 24. 
Allied closely with the Hurybotrye, but distinguished from it as from all 
other Millettias by its pod. 
4. Ророслкрж, Dunn, sect. nov. Arbores. Foliola exstipellata. Racemi 
axilares. Flores singuli vel bini. Petala glabra ; vexillum exauriculatum. 
Stamina sepius diadelpha. Discus szepius tubularis. Ovarium stipitatum. 
Distributed over U. Burma, Tonkin, and S. China, only M. Piscidia 
extending into Bengal and Assam. pp. 5, n. 25-29. 
M. Bonatiana differs in several respects from the above sectional diagnosis. 
It forms a link with Wistaria and Gliricidia.
