860 ADDITIONS AND CORRECTIONS, VOL. V. 
odoratissima ; it is very sweet-scented both in leaf and flower, and is the plant so called 
by Brandis and accepted by the Forest department. C, the L. Champa, Herb. Ham., 
from Rungpore and Patgong with globose small fruit, and D? from Goalpara, are 
all the cultivated M. bombycina, King, and E? from Silhet with a silky perianth 
and long glaucous leaves is probably M. Aurzii, King. F, said to be from Singapore, 
is unquestionably the same as B, and the habitat is almost certainly erroneous. 
Meissner's M. odoratissima is an even greater mixture than Nees’, and not worth 
unravelling, the specimens described being almost uniformly without fruit, Lou- 
reiros LL. indica, cited by both the above authors, is probably M. rimosa, Kurz. 
Kurz's M. indica with oblong fruit and glabrous panicles is, no doubt, M. odora- 
tissima, as is Brandis’ plant of the latter name, and Strachey and Winterbottom s 
Ocotea ligustrina. Gamble’s is a mixture of plants from the plains up to 8000 ft. 
Blume's M. odoratissima may be anything. i 
2. M. PARVIFLORA, Meissn. (p. 137); branchlets and young leaves glabrous or 
faintly silky, leaves linear-lanceolate or oblanceolate often large 6-10 in. quite 
glabrous and very glaucous blue beneath with 6-10 pairs of distant nerves, panicles 
and small flowers quite glabrous, filaments short broad, fruit 2 in, long. 
KnASIA, and Duphla Hills, in Assam, alt, 4000 ft., common. 
** Fruit globose or nearly so. Flowers silky tomentose or pubescent in all but 
M. Gammieana. 
T Young leaves villously pubescent or tomentose beneath. . 
.3. M. VILLOSA, Hook. f. (p. 140) ; nerves of leaf 6-8 pairs very strong, panicle 
long-peduncled, flowers about 1 in. diam., sepals short ovate obtuse, fruit young 
1 in. diam,

GaRkow, KHASIA, and PATKOYE HILLS. 
Nees’ Phebe glaucescens may be a mixture of this and M, macrantha. There 
is no corresponding Nepal specimen in Wallich's Herb, tothat in Herb. Hook., which 
was received about 1822. 
4. M. EDULIS, King (p. 138). I have nothing to add to the description. 
Tt Young leaves glabrous or finely silky beneath. 
5. M. GAMMIEANA, King (p. 137), and M, CLARKEANA, King (p. 137), seem to be 
one species; the leaves attain 10 in., glaucous beneath with many faint nerves 
beneath ; flowers quite glabrous ; the filaments are glabrous or hairy. The flowering 
specimens with few-nerved leaves sent with the fruiting and referred to at the end 
ot the description of M. Gammieana, were those of Phebe lanceolata. The quite 
glabrous flowers distinguish this from M. Duthiei. 
6. M. LISTERI, King (p. 138). Two plants were here mixed. The true M. Listert 
(to the description of which I have nothing to add) has cuneately obovate leaves 
glaucous and puberulous beneath with 10-12 pairs of parallel nerves, a short (im- 
mature) hoary panicle, and fruit 1 in. diam.; young leaves unknown. The Narainpore 
specimens certainly belonged to M. Gamblei. 
7. M. GAMBLII, King mss.; shoots and young leaves beneath finely silky, 
leaves 3-6 in, obovate or oblanceolate quite glabrous beneath impressed punctate on 
both surfaces, nerves 8-10 pairs very slender, sepals silky on both surfaces, filaments 
glabrate, fruit globose 4-} in. diam. 
NxrAL, Wallich, SIKKIM HIMALAYA, ascending to 7000 ft. AssaM and the 
DurnurA HILLS. 
The Assam specimens have more slender panicles, and more resemble M. bomby- 
cina, but the leaves are glabrous beneath. . . 
8. M. KURZII, King mss. ; shoots and young leaves glabrous, leaves 3-5 in. as in 
M. Gamblei, but more glaucous with 10-12 pairs of very indistinct nerves beneath, 
panicle subsilkily tomentose, sepals linear-oblong silky on both surfaces, filaments 
nearly glabrous, fruit 3 ín. diam. &
