A climber. Leaves 5 by 24 in., nerves 5-6 pair, usually puberulous above, 
beneath most obscurely dotted and sometimes pubescent ;, petiole 4-2} in. Corymbs 
3 in. diam.; bracts 4 in., Janceolate; flowers shortly pedicelled or sessile. Calyx 
4 in., broadly cup-shaped ; upper lip in flower of 2 minute acute teeth, lower sub- 
eutire. Corolla i in. throat hairy. Drupe } in. diam., globose, 3—4-sceded.— An 
authentic Javan example from Miquel of his /ucidula has the corymbs stouter, the 
calyx larger, more distinctly toothed, the corolla fully 2 in.

Calyx d, in., closely minutely grey-pubescent; after flowering somewhat deeply

acuminate large leaves and scandent habit, the true affinity of this may be near P.

to stand there,
