large shrub was introduced into the Calcutta Garden. He quotes, however, Rheede's 
Curutu Pala as a synonyme, which points out Malabar as the native country. 
4. T. persicariefolia. Jacq. 
I have received specimens which were gathered at the Isle of France by my friend 
C. Telfair, Esq. 
5. T. dichotoma. Roxb. Hort. Beng. p. 20.—Foliis oblongis obtusis coriaceis lucidis 
subtüs parallelé et transversè multinervosis, cymá elongatá dichotomá, laciniis calycis 
obtusis, corolla oblongo-falcatis tubum zequantibus. 
This grows to the size of 12 to 16 feet, with a peculiarly dark and glossy foliage, and 
yellowish, delightfully fragrant flowers. Tt is a native of Ceylon and Malabar. : 
6. T. corymbosa. Roxb. MSS. — Foliis oblongo-ellipticis obtusè acuminatis deorsüm

coroll: subovatis tubo triplö brevioribus. 
A large handsome species, which I found in the mountain forests of Prince of Wales's 
Island. 
7. T. Heyneana. Wall.—Foliis ovato-lanceolatis acuminatis, pedunculis paucifloris, 
laciniis calycis rotundatis obtusis, corolle obovatis crispatis tubum subequantibus. 
Specimens of this are preserved in the late Dr. Heyne's collection in the Company's 
Museum, under the name of T. corymbosa. In the same Herbarium there are specimens, 
under thé same name, of a species in fruit, which is probably distinct, having oblong, 
coriaceous, and lucid leaves, and ovate, short-pointed fruit, about an inch long. This 
species might be called T. oblonga. 
8. T. Telfairiana. Wall.— Foliis ovalibus utrinque obtusissimis, pedunculis subaxil- 
laribus bis terve furcatis, laciniis calycis ovatis obtusiusculis, coroll oblongis tubum 
subeequantibus. 
Specimens were sent to me from the Mauritius by Mr. Telfair. They seem to differ 
from the description of T. mauritiana Poir. 
9. T. peduncularis. Wall. — Foliis oblongo-lanceolatis gracillimè acuminatis subtüs 
transversè nervosis, pedunculis filiformibus longissimis, pedicellis subumbellatis, folliculis

laribus longissimis, floribus subracemosis, lobis calycis ovatis acutis, corolle oblongis,

I found this shrub at Moolmeyn and Amherst, in Martaban. I have also met with 
it in fruit on the hills at Segaen, opposite the city of Ava, although I am not quite certain 
of its identity. 
ll. T. calycina. Wall. — Foliis lanceolatis, pedunculis paucifloris, floribus brevé 
pedicellatis subfasciculatis, laciniis calycis bracteisque seriùs delabescentibus elongatis

Specimens were gathered at Tavoy, on the coast of Tenasserim, by Mr. William 
Gomez, plant collector in the employ of the Calcutta Garden. 
12. T. rostrata. Wall.—Foliis lanceolatis gracillimé acuminatis, pedunculis pauci- 
floris, laciniis calycis subligulatis, tubo corolle gracili medio staminifero et tumido limbo

Ava. The follicles resemble those of T. densifiora. 
16. T. salicifolia. Wall.—Foliis lineari-lanceolatis attenuato-acuminatissimis margine 
undulatis subtùs glaucis, laciniis calycis lanceolatis acutis. 
Specimens of this strongly saio species are preserved in Dr. Heyne's Herbarium, 
under the name of T. parviflora, with unexpanded flowers. I sent some of them home to 
the Honourable East India Company's Museum in 1824, as a species of Alyxia. 
l7. T. macrocarpa. Jack in Misc. Malayan, vol. 2. n. 8. p. 80.—Foliis ovato-ellipticis 
basi attenuatis, corymbis terminalibus dichotomis, folliculis maximis subglobosis.— Jack l. c- 
A native of the interior of Bencoolen, where it attains the size of a large tree. I have 
not seen specimens of it; but I notice the species because it was discovered by one of the 
dearest friends I ever had in India, and has been published so far back as 1822 in a most 
valuable but very little known work. It has not been mentioned by any subsequent 
writer."
