iiXTii. SAMTDACE^. (C. B. Clarke.) 



\jOasearia, 



' - c^ 



A shrub, or tree attaining 25 ft. ; branchlets tomentose pubescent or nearly gla- 

 brous. Leaves 4 by 1^ in., tomentose beneath or pubescent or only slightly hairy 

 about the base of the midrib, rarely so closely serrate as in Wight Ic, t. 1849, often 

 nearly entire ; petiole variable from ^| to 6 in. in Central India examples. Pedwels 

 usually numerous, less than ^ in. ; buds usually hairy, sometimes nearly glabrous. 

 Staminal tube short, stamens 7-10 (sometimes 12 Benth.). Seeds in red pulp. — The 

 typical C. toraentosa of North-West India has softly villous oblong nearly entire leaves ; 

 the South Indian examples (var. eZiip^ic//) have the leaves more glabrous, morecrenate- 

 serrate and more narrowed at base. With these the Malayan examples agree. As to 

 C Canziala, Wall. Cat, 7192 stated by Wall, to be equivalent to C. ovata Eoxb. the 

 numerous examples of Wight and Wallich have the pedicels buds and leaves beneath 

 villous and if it is separable as a species it is certainly not C. graveolens, Will- 

 denow says his C elliptica has glabrous leaves and Roxburgh says his C. glabra has 

 glabrous leaves; so that these synonyms as known only from description must be 

 excluded. But it is very probable that they relate to the nearly glabrous form C 

 Dallachii (see Benth, FL AustraL iii. 309).

 sessile, fruit less than ^ in. diam. nearly globose.

 most minutely pubescent. Fruit subsessile. — Scarcely differs from C. t&meniosa ont 

 by the more acuminate leaves.

JVIaiacca, Maingay No. 659, 661.— Distrib. Malaya to the Philippines. ^^ 

 A small tree (Maingay), branchlets more or less pubescent. Leaves 7 by 2\ id. J 

 petiole \ in. Pedicels often \ in., jointed at the base, buds generally pubescent.-- 

 Differs little ftom C. tomeiitosa but by the cordate base of the leaves as Ventena 

 mentions. Miquel says his C. subcuneata differs from the typical C, grewi^foha i> 

 being less hairy ; but in MiqueFs own communicated examples there if* hardly any 

 difference even in this respect.

 Stigma 4-lobed (Beddome). —Differs considerably from C. tomentosa among ocu
