6. G. subulata, Muell. Arg. in DC. Prodr. xv. ii. 1039 (Bennettia) ; 
branchlets petioles and rachis of racemes rusty-pubescent, leaves elliptic or 
oblong-obovate cuspidately acuminate yellow-green puberulous on the costa 
and nerves beneath, bracts erect subulate, flowers subsessile, sepals rounded, 
margins of petals ciliate, filaments and anthers hispid. 
Prnan@ (in Herb. Sonder from Herb. Lindley). ? Perak (Herb. Hort. Calcutt., 
No. 840 and 2684). 
I have seen no Penang specimens of this, which must be very near G. Jackiana, 
differing in the long bracts. The Perak specimens, which I doubtfully refer to it, 
have green leaves, 7-12 by 21-5 in., with acute or rounded bases and 5-6 pairs of 
Very strong nerves beneath; they are not in flower, but one (No. 2684) has fruit 
4 in. broad by 3 long, very broadly wedge-shaped with rounded angles and a truncate 
broad base, densely clothed with a pale tomentum. The bracts seem early 
deciduous. 
*** Anthers and filaments quite glabrous. 
7. G. Lindleyana, Muell. Arg. in Linnea xxxiv. 205, and in DC. 
Prodr. xv. ii. 1037 ; branchlets and leaf-nerves beneath and racemes finely 
fulvous tomentose, leaves ovate elliptic or oblong acuminate, male racemes 
strict, flowers small very shortly pedicelled, petals and stamens quite gla- 
brous, pistillode with a truncate hispid dilated top.—Bennettia, Wall. Cat. 
8585 C (in part). 
Prvane, Wallich, Porter ; on West Hill, alt. 2500 ft., Curtis. 
Leaves 6-7 in., rather coriaceous, base acute or rounded; nerves 6-8 pairs, rather 
strong beneath ; petiole 4 in. Racemes apparently erect, 6-10 in.; bracts 0 or 
obscure, pedicels shorter than the flowers which are not 4, in. diam. ; petals rounded 
with a few cilia on the tips, 
8. G. affinis, Br. in Bennett Fl. Jav. 251 (Bennettia); branchlets 
leaves beneath and racemes finely pubescent, leaves elliptic oblong or lan- 
ceolate acuminate puberulous beneath, male racemes erect, flowers very 
shortly pedicelled, petals and stamens quite glabrous. Bennettia affinis,

SINGAPORE, Cantley. Matacca, Mt. Ophir, Grifith (Kew Distrib. 4966). 
Maingay (Kew Distrib. 1411),—D1sterB. ? Siam, Finlayson. — 
Leaves rather coriaceous, 5-8 by 11-3 in.; nerves 6-8 pair, strong beneath; 
Petiole very short, jj in., stout, Male racemes 4-5 in. (2 ft. in the Singapore speci- 
mens), rachis faintly pubescent or tomentose; flowers j; in. diam., almost sessile. 
: ruit transversely oblong, pubescent, $ in. diam. when dry.—I am doubtful as to all 
` e specimens from the above localities being referable to one species ; they present 
e following differences :— 
| habi; Wallich's No. 8585 B, in part, which is from Herb. Finlayson and is pro- 
8 
Y Siamese (not Penang as stated by Mueller), has oblong-lanceolate leaves 
lai by 14-2 in., with acute bases, male racemes 4 in. long, and a short columnar 
ary pistillode, 
2. Cantley's Si in No. 1 emes 2 ft. long, and a 
| pisti ley's Singapore plant has leaves as in No. 1, racemes. "ng 
| Mrillode with few hairs below and a dilated glabrous top.—A fruiting specimen from 
| of NOCT Maingay, has a similarly elongate raceme, but the leaves are more like those 
o. 1. 
3. Griffith’s from Mt. Ophir and a Malaccan fruiting specimen from Maingay 
re leaves 5-7 by 21-3 in. with rounded or even subcordate bases, racemes of No. 1, 
| a stout columnar villous pistillode. 
l 3. G. Wallichii, Br. in Bennett Fl. Jav. 251 (Bennettia) ; branchlets 
“aves and racemes glabrous, leaves oblong elliptic or elliptic-lanceolate
