This must be closely allied to P. weinmannifolia, Poisson (Bull. 
Sce. Bot. France, xxxiii. p. 467), from Yunnan, which we have 
not seen. It differs from that, according to the description, in 
being glabrous and in the larger dark green apiculate leaves. 
It also resembles P. Lentiscus, Linn., ditfering in the rhachis 
of the leaf not being winged, and in the smaller duller-coloured 
fruit.

Our specimen has the broad stipular wing of C. alata, Ham., 
and the short-stalked pod of the South-Indian and Ceylon C. ru- 
biginosa, Willd.; and we can find no charaeter to distinguish 
them from each other as species.
