 in petiolum attenuate elliptica acuta integerrima, margine parum revo- 

 luta, coriacea, glabra, concoloria, plana, supra nitida subtus opaea. Racemi 

 erecti floribus nutantibus. Calyx tubulosus breviter 5-dentatus margine 

 parum pubescenti-tomentosus. Corolla tubo fere recto limbo piano, utrin- 

 que tenuiter pubescenti tomentella. Drupa carnosa diam. 8 mm lata.

7. Callicarpa elegans Hayek, nov. spec. 



Rami subtetragoni, iuvenes tomento floccoso obtecti, adulti glabri. 

 Folia coriacea brevissime petiolata, in petiolum attenuata, lanceolata, in 

 apicem linearem longam acutam producta, margine regulariter serrata, 

 glaberrima, in pagina superiore sparse, in pagina inferiore densius punctis 

 glandulosis aureis nitidis obsita. Cymae pauciflorae graciles pedunculis 

 petiolum duplo fere superantibus, dimidiam vel tertiam partem foliorum 

 aequantes, pedunculis pedicellisque tomento sparso deciduo obtectis. 



Foliorum forma Callicarpae caudatae Maxim, simillima, differt foliorum 

 glabritie et serrutura maiore nee non indumento ramorum diverso; a C. 

 purpurea Juss. foliis coriaceis nee chartaceis in acumen elongatum pro-
