I can discover no character to distinguish this from Dr. Wight's plant but the 

 larger size of the leaves, and do not venture to separate it on that account only. A 

 comparison with authentic specimens of Dr, "Wight's B. arboreum may possibly 

 prove this to be distinct from it, and in that case it might be called J?, macrophyllum,

Distinguished most readily from the preceding by its smaller, tetramerons 

 flowers ; the leaves, also, are not nearly so large, and the ripe friut is more 

 cylindrical in form, and smaller.
