Leaves 8 by 34 in., base cuneate or rounded, very coriaceous. Panicles minutely 
pubescent in flower, very rigid, brachiate in fruit.—Maingay’s plant here described 
differs from M. smilacifolium, only in its very stout habit and large berries, Whether 
it is Blume’s M. nervosum is uncertain, as that has no ripe fruit,
