lobis lanceolatis acutissimis paulo brevioribus quam tubus, petalis oblongis obtusis integris

vix 3 lineas longi; pedunculi gracillimi, 2-4 lin. longi; calycis tubus gracilis, deorsum 
gradatim attenuatus ; lobi lanceolati, acuminati, apiculati, tubo vix duplo breviores ; petala 
oblonga, obtusa, integra, lobis calycinis breviora ; stamina inclusa, fere sessilia; ovarium

(Linden, 631). Hb. Kew. 
In foliage this species closely resembles F. microphylla; but it is of more slender 
habit, the leaves are thinner in substance, and the very small flowers are wholly 
- different. The calyx-tube is extremely slender, and the oblong petals are entire.

Foliis serrulatis, floribus breviter pedunculatis ad 7-9 lineas longis, calycis tubo lato supra ovarium 
subito constricto, lobis anguste lanceolatis acutis dimidio brevioribus quam tubus, petalis ellipticis 
integris vel emarginatis quam lobi calycini multo brevioribus, stylo exserto, stigmate 4-lobato. 
Frutex, caule robustiusculo, ramulis vix gracilibus, valde foliosis, plus minusve rufo-puberulis. 
Folia sepissime opposita, breviter petiolata, subcoriacea, glaberrima, serrulata, ovato-lanceolata,
