] in., minutely toothed, tomentose or nearly glabrous. Corolla } in., woolly without. 
Drupe obovoid, succulent.—In the typical form the leaflets are coriaceous, shining, 
yellowish beneath, nervation obscure: in P. saligna, Roxb., they are more membranous, 
the reticulated nervation distinct on both surfaces. A very handsome form with 
broader leaflets is marked Wallrothia tomentosa by Wight; but the extreme mem- 
branous narrow-leaved V. saligna (Roxburgh’s specimen) shows similar hair on each 
side the midrib beneath. 
17. V. glabrata, Br. Prodr. 512; leaves 5-3-foliolate, leaflets ovate 
or oblong subentire mature sparsely strigillose beneath, corymbs divaricate,

A small tree; shoots fulvous-tomentose or woolly. Leaves mostly 5-foliolate (in 
the Indian tree); leaflets 5 by 2} in., acute or cuneate at both ends, entire d 
toothed, young very softly hairy or subtomentose, mature with scattered |o 
minute bairs beneath; petiolules 1-2 in.; petiole 1-4 in., not winged. Peduneles 
long or more often short; flowers somewhat numerous, mostly shortly pedicelled , 
bracts inconspicuous. Calyx jy in., minutely toothed. Corolla 4-3 in, tomentose, 
ochroleucous ; lowest segment much the largest, hairy, blue-purple. Filaments 
minutely hairy. Pistil glabrous. Drupe obovoid, succulent.— The typical V. glabra» 
R. Br., has leaves usually 3-foliolate and rounder more glabrate leaflets and fewer-fic 
corymbs than the Indian tree; but some of the examples of V. Cunninghamu APP. 
identical with Silhet specimens, The typical V. bombacifolia, Wallich (Vitex n , 
Herb. Ind. Or. H. f. & T.), has the leaflets mostly 5, large and broad ; V. palli M 
Wallich (Vitex n. 10, Herb. Ind. Or. H. f. & T.), has smaller, more hairy leaflets, an 
short peduncles. 
Subgenus 2. Glossocalyx. Calyx unequally 2-lipped, deeply 3-toothed. 
18. V. gamosepala, Grif Notul. iv. 178, and Ic. Pl. Asiat. t. 448,

A widdle-sized tree; shoots fulvous-hairy. Leaflets 4 by 13 in. somewna 
coriaceous, petiolule of the middle leaflet 4 in. ; petiole 1-2 in., not winged. Cymes 
1-3 in. diam., globose, repeatedly 2-3-tomous, sparingly fulvous-hairy ; bracts caducous. 
Calyx j in.; tube shorter than the lip, ovoid ; upper lip of two oblong segments, lower 
twice as long, elliptic, entire. Corolla nearly 4 in. ; tube narrow, glabrate, with many 
yellow glands, limb small. Anther-cells divaricate as in Vites type (Griffith’s drawing 
shows them very young). Drupe  in., ovoid, glabrous.—The corolla as well as the 
inflorescence shows the affinity to V. vestita, 
UNKNOWN SPECIES. 
VITEX? AXILLARIS, Wall. Cat. 1760, from Tavoy, is not in Wallich’s Herbarium 
Vitex Haynea, Roab. Hort. Beng. 46, from Chittagong (name only), is probably 
one of the species described in Fl. Ind., under which Roxburgh has omitted to recor 
the earlier name. . 
Vitex SCABRA, Wall. Cat. 1758, from Ava (Schauer in DC. Prodr. xi. 695), 1
