the N. Indian denticulate, somewhat roughly hairy above, beneath densely villous or 
thinly hairy often with small obscure round glands; petiole 1-4 in. Panicle 6-12 by 
4-8 in., erect, brachiate, sometimes leafy on the main rachis, upper branches and 
calyces more or less reddening; bracts of the cymes usually caducous. Calya, in 
flower, } in., divided nearly to the base; segments broadly lanceolate, very acute, 
suberect. Corolla pubescent without, white pink-tinged; tube 3 in. Drupe in. 
diam., black ; calyx in fruit enlarged, sometimes 14 in. diam.—Mountain specimens have 
often large leaves, and are unusually high-coloured. Lindl. Bot. Reg. 1844, t. 19, 
doubtfully referred here by Schauer, has high-red flowers, and may possibly be some 
garden form of C. infortunatum, which in the wild state produces a nearly white 
corolla,

A shrub 3-5 ft., or a small tree 15-20 ft. (Kurz). Leaves as of C. infortunatum, 
but slightly more silky rather than roughly villous. Panicle as of C. infortunatum, 
but more softly hairy, and not red. Calyx 4 in., divided rather more than half-way 
down. Corolla pubescent, greenish-white, altogether smaller than of C. infortunatum. 
Dr "pe +i diam., dry black appearing hardly succulent.— Very like C. infortunatum, 
but distinguished by its small flowers, and generally also by the glandular calyx-seg- 
ments. Butina few examples of C. infortunatum from the Malay Peninsula the 
Calyx is fall of glands.
