Branches slender, bark pale. Leaves subverticillate at the ends of the branches, 
14-2 in. broad, usually pale ochreous beneath, margin rarely with a few minute 
distant gland-tipped teeth, base usually acute; nerves 15-20 pairs, very slender ; 
petiole 2—4 in., sometimes as long as the blade, very slender. Racemes 2—3 in., slender, 
quite glabrous, the uppermost flower female about } in. diam., males much smaller ; 
sepals nearly orbicular, glabrous; petiole larger. Capsule (immature) hoary.—Baillon, 
followed by Mueller, erroneously cites as a synonym Wallich’s Croton levigatus, which 
is a different plant. 
Sect. III. PycNANTHERAa. Racemes or spikes terminal. Anthers 3 
sessile on a short column, cells adnate to the greatly thickened connective. 
8. T. diplopetalus, Thwaites Enum. 277; nearly glabrous, leaves 
6-9 in. shortly petioled elliptic lanceolate or oblanceolate obtusely acuminate 
remotely denticulate, racemes terminal sessile elongate puberulous, male fl. 
minute clustered shortly pedicelled, anthers 3, fem. solitary longer edi- 
celled, ovary pubescent, styles short twice bifid, capsule pubescent. uell.

A shrub or small tree, young parts puberulous. Leaves 14-21 in. broad, dar k 
brown and opaque when dry, toothlets glandular, base very acute; nerves 20-30 pair, 
slender, nearly horizontal; petiole 4—4 in., channelled above. Male spike with a 
stout rachis; flowers 54, in. diam. ; bracts very short; fem. fl. on pedicels $ in. long ; 
sepals oblong; petals larger, 2-fid, lobes rounded sinuously laciniate ; anthers sessile, 
cells diverging from the top of an almost globose connective. Capsule 3-lobed, globose, 
smooth, 4 in. diam.—Thwaites describes the capsule as 2 in. diam., possibly a typo- 
graphical error for 3-3. I have seen but one specimen and no fem. flowers. 
9. T. nemoralis, Thwaites Enum. 277 ; nearly glabrous, leaves 3-7 m- 
very shortly petioled elliptic-oblong or -lanceolate obtuse sinuate-toothed, 
racemes terminal stout shorter or longer than the leaves silkily pubescent, 
male fl. clustered shortly pedicelled, fem. solitary longer pedicelled, ovary
