86 DR. OTTO STAPF ON 
The other species which I refer to A£rozima are :— 
1. A. Afzeliana, Stapf (= Carpolobia Afzeliana, Oliver, in Fl. 
Trop. Afr. i. p. 186); 2. A. macrostachya, Stapf (= Carpolobie 
macrostachya, Chod. in Bull. Herb. Boiss. v. p. 117); 9. 4. Zen- 
keri, Stapf (=Carpolobia Zenkeri, Gürke, MS.). As the latter 
is still undescribed, I add here a short diagnosis :— 
Atroxima Zenkeri, Stapf (sp. nov.).  Kamuli graciles. Folia 
elliptico-oblonga, basi breviter contracta acuta, apice abrupte 
acuminata, ad 54 poll. longa, ad 2 poll. lata, tenuiter coriacea, 
nervis lateralibus utrinque circiter 7 uti venarum reticulatione 
tenuibus indistincte arcuato-connectis ; petioli subgraciles, 2— 
3 lin. longi. — Racemi 1-4 in axillis foliorum vel in ramulis 
nonnullis ob folia (rudimentaria ?) premature decidua quasi in 
paniculas collecti, griseo-pubescentes. Flores non nisi ex 
alabastris noti. Fructus 4 poll. diametro; pericarpium extus 
opacum, fusco-fulvum, intus nitens, 4-2 lin. crassum. Semina 
3 lin. diametro. 
Cameroons: in primeval forest near Bipinde, Zenker, 1240. 
The fruit of Carpolobia, as represented by the species C. alba, 
D. Don, and C. lutea, D. Don, is a true berry. The globose or 
subglobose seeds are covered with a rieh silky tomentum, and 
possess an ample, fleshy albumen. The embryo consists of a 
very short subclavate radicle and two very thin foliaceous 
cotyledons almost as long and as wide as the seed. 
Garcinia epunctata, Stapf (sp. nov.); affinis G. punctate, 
Oliver, differt foliorum glandulis eanaliformibus nervos secun- 
darios venasque transgredientibus longis tenuibus subundulatis 
(haud punetiformibus vel striiformibus), pedicellis robustioribus 
distinetis, floribus paulo majoribus, sepalis interioribus magni- 
tudine minus diversis, phalangibus circiter 8-nas anthera 
gerentibus. 
Folia oblonga vel elliptico-oblonga, basi acuta, apice abrupte 
caudato-acuminata (acumine ad 3 poll. longo), ad. 5 poll. longa, ad 
velultra2 poll. lata, tenuiter coriacea, nervissecundariis numerosis, 
circiter 1 lin. distantibus obliquis ut venis tenuibus, glandulis 
canaliformibus nervos venasque transgredientipus longis tenuibus 
subundulatis, petiolus 2-3 lin. longus. Flores solitarii vel 
geminati; bracteæ parvule, late; pedicelli 1 lin. longi. Sepala 
4 rotundata, pallide viridia, venosa, interiora majora, 9 lin. 
diametro. Petala 4 rotundato-elliptica, saturate lutea, ad 4 lin.
