40 LXXV, RUBIACEX. (J. D. Hooker.) [ Wendlandia. 
Wallich’s specimen alone seen; well distinguished by the simply acute leaves and 
glabrous calyx with long teeth. 
10. W. glomerulata, Kurz in Journ. As. Soc. 1872, ii. 310; 1877, ii. 
129; For. Fl. ii. 77 ; branches slender glabrous, leaves opposite narrow-lanceo- 
late long-acuminate glabrous membranous, stipules large orbicular recurved, 
panicle small pubescent, calyx hirsute, teeth much longer than the tube. 
TeNassERIM ; at Mergui, Griffith, Helfer (Kew Distrib. 2838), Kurz. 
An evergreen small tree or shrub. Leaves 6-7 by 3-14 in., much attenuate at 
both ends; nerves 12-15 pair; petiole 1-1 in.; stipules leafy, sometimes 2-fid, very 
persistent. Panicle with slender branches. Corolla-tube funnel-shaped, twice as long 
as the calyx-teeth. Stamens much exserted. Capsule hispid.— The narrow leaves, 
stipules, and hispid calyx with long teeth, well distinguish this species. 
B. Leaves usually 3-nately whorled (see also 6. JV. glabrata).

acuminate, stipules recurved with eit or 2-fid. tips rarely straight and 
acute, panicle pyramidal hirsute dense-fld,, calyx hirsute, teeth ovate-lanceolate.
