STANDLEY—TROPICAL AMERICAN PHANEROGAMS, 123 
RESTORATION OF THE GENERIC NAME EVEA, WITH DESCRIP- 
TIONS OF TWO NEW SPECIES. 
The genus to which it is here proposed to restore the earliest name, 
Evea, has usually been known as Cephaelis or Uragoga, when it has 
been distinguished from Psychotria. The name Uragoga was used 
for it prior to 1753, but not afterwards until taken up by Baillon in 
1880.1 Cephaelis was published by Swartz in 1788.2. In 1775 Aublet 
had published three generic names, Evea, Carapichea, and Tapo- 
gomea, all of which have always been referred to Cephaelis or Uragoga. 
Evea has priority of place in Aublet’s Histoire des Plantes de la 
Guiane Francaise and consequently is the name to be adopted for 
the genus. The type species is Hvea guianensis Aubl. 
The following list of species includes all those known to occur in 
Panama. There are included descriptions of two new species, one 
from Panama and one from Colombia. 
Evea axillaris (Swartz) Standley. 
Cephaelis arillaris Swartz, Prodr. Veg. Ind. Occ. 45. 1788. 
Tapogomea axillaris Poir. in Lam. Encycl. Suppl. 7: 585, 1806. 
Evea elata (Swartz) Standley. 
Cephaelis elata Swartz, Prodr. Veg. Ind. Occ. 45. 1788. 
Cephaelis punicea Vahl, Eclog. Amer. 1: 19. 1796. 
Cephaelis costaricensis Schlecht. Linnaea 28: 546. 1857, 
Evea ipecacuanha (Brot.) Standley. 
Calicocea ipecacuanha Brot. Trans. Linn, Soe, 6: 137. pl. 11. 1802. 
Ipecacuanha officinalis Arruda, Diss. Pl. Braz, 44. 1810. 
Collected in the vicinity of San Felix, eastern Chiriquf, Panama, at an altitude of 
120 meters or less, by H. Pittier (no. 5271). 
This plant furnishes the ipecac of commerce, which is exported in large quantities 
from northern Sovth America and in small amounts from Panama. The Panama 
specimens are in fruit only, but seem to agree well with descriptions of the Brazilian 
plant, except that they are less pubescent. 
Evea muscosa (Jacq.) Standley. 
Morinda muscosa Jacq. Enum. Pl, Carib. 16. 1760. 
Cephaelis muscosa Swartz, Prodr. Veg. Ind. Occ. 46. 1788. 
Evea tomentosa (Aubl.) Standley. 
Tapogomea tomentosa Aubl. PI. Guian. 1: 160. pl. 61. 1775, 
Cephaelis tomentosa Vahl, Eclog. Amer. 1: 19. 1796. 
Evea campyloneuroides Standley, sp. nov. 
Small tree; young branches stout, densely covered with loose slender whitish hairs; 
stipules united at the base, green, persistent, 15 to 18 mm. long, bilobate, the lobes 
lanceolate, long-attenuate, densely sericeous outside, glabrous within; petioles stout, 
2 to 3 cm. long, densely pubescent like the stems, leaf blades oval or elliptic-oval, 14 
to 18 cm. long, 5.5 to 7 cm. wide, abruptly acuminate or short-caudate, the tip 10 to 
15 mm. long, acute or acuminate at the base, thin, deep green on the upper surface, 
slightly paler beneath, glabrous above except along the midvein, sericeous beneath
