Closely related to Uncaria homomalla Miquel, from the Jyntea Hills, north- 
eastern India (Wallich 61089), but that species has pubescent branches and leaves, 
and much smaller and narrower stipules. Another close ally is U. laevigatus Wal- 
lich, from Manipur, Khasia Hills and Tenasserim, with broader leaves, only 5 
pairs of side nerves and very early caducous stipules.
