SPECIMENS EXAMINED? ¢! — 
GuatTeMALA: Livingston, February 18, 1905, Deam 61 (type collection ; 
G, N). 
A very distinct species, readily recognized among North American species 
by its large obovate leaves and long filaments. 
35. Rinorea pubipes Blake, sp. nov. 
Branchlets densely puberulous and more sparsely hispid-pilose with rufid 
hairs, glabrescent; leaves opposite ; petioles pubescent like the branchlets, 
8 to 5 mm. long; blades oblong-elliptic or obovate-elliptic, 9 to 12.5 cm. long, 
3 to 4.5 em. wide, abruptly acuminate, at base cuneate or rounded-cuneate, 
crenate-serrulate, papery, puberulous on costa above or glabrate, beneath 
along the costa and the 8 to 10 pairs of lateral veins densely puberulous and 
more sparsely hispid-pilose ; racemes about 6 em. long, densely sordid-puberu- 
lous; pedicels 1.5 to 2 mm. long; sepals orbicular-ovate, 1.2 mm. long, obtuse or 
apiculate, not striate, ciliolate and densely strigillose at least along midline; 
petals lance-oblong, 4.2 mm. long, ciliolate below, with obtuse reflexed apex; 
stamens 3 mm. long, glabrous, the slender filaments 0.8 mm. long, equaling
