Apparently closely allied to fetidus, and like it with fotid yellow KEE 
differing in the spicate dark coloured or even blackish fruits and muricata cr ir. 
ofthe drupes. I have seen no specimens. I do not cite Rumph. Herb. r being 
154, though it is the authority for the species, the description and plate no 
sufficiently explicit. Nor are others of the authorities cited quite dependable.

with a low crown and subulate or flattened simple or forked stigma.
