a little yellow hair clinging to the sides of the midrib beneath; ‘nerves 6 pair, 
secondary reticulating nerves conspicuous; petiole 2} in. Corymbs terminal, short- 
peduncled, 3-4 in. diam., closely pubescent and with some deciduous fulvous hairs, 
exceedingly like P. integrifolia, but rather larger. Calyx jy in., in fruit 3-toothed, 
closely scabrid-puberulous. Corolla 41-4 in., greenish-white, hairy in the throat. 
Drupe | in. diam., globose, 4-seeded (ltoxburgh).— The two examples of Roxburgh, 
one named by himself, agree exactly with his [c. Ined. at Kew, and with his descrip- 
tion; and are very unlike the P. longifolia of Wallich, accepted as Roxburgh’s by 
Schauer. It seems very near P. integrifolia, Linn. 
Y** Calyx 5—4-toothed, subequally or obscurely 2-lipped. 
T Leaves entire or nearly so. 
16. P. milleflora, Clarke; leaves large long-petioled ovate acute 
entire mature minutely crisped-pubescent on the nerves, corymb large very

Generally resembling P. longifolia, Roxb., but with a very large dense corymb 
of very small flowers. Leaves 7 by 4 in., base rhomboid, mature minutely pubes- 
cent on the nerves (primary and secondary) beneath, nerves 8 pair; petiole 24 in. 
Corymb a foot diam., about 2000-fowered (in Griffith’s n. 320), and calyx (si in-), 
minutely pubescent. Corolla 4, in., throat hairy. Drupe 4 in., globose. 
17. P. tomentosa, Willd. Sp. Pl. iii. 314; leaves ovate acuminate 
entire mature stellate-woolly beneath, corymbs panicled densely stellate- 
woolly, calyx shortly 5-fid, ovary upwards very hairy. Roxb. Fl. Ind. ui

A tree, often 50 ft. ; branchlets densely stellate-woolly. Leaves 6 by 34 in., base 
rounded or subcordate, coriaceous, minutely glandular scabrous above, nerves 7 pair; 
petiole 1 in. Corymbs $ in. diam., often sessile, upper branches (or nearly all) 
alternate; bracts } in. linear. Calyx j, in., stellately woolly. Corolla à-à n. 2- 
lipped, hairy in the throat, greenish-yellow. Drupe in. diam., deciduously hairy, 
ovoid, 3-1-seeded.— This is certainly P. tomentosa of Roxb., but whether of Willd. may 
be questioned. Willdenow founds his plant as a syn. of Cornutia corymbosa, Lamk. 
Lamarck does not say Whether it was the same as Cornutia corymbosa, Burm. If it 
was the same, which from the description seems not improbable, then Premna 
tomentosa, Willd., is a mere syn. of P. corymbosa. AN
