This is the Cosmibuena obtusifolia of the third vol. of Flora — 
Perwiana. It is widely different from the C. macrocarpa of 
Vahl, the C. ovalifolia of Mutis, with which Humboldt, in his 
account of the Bark Forests, appears. to have confounded it. 
The flowers are of a brilliant white, the largest of the whole 
genus, which, together with its: green shining leaves, forma strik- 
ing contrast in. its native forests. It eNGRES! in the warmest 
regionsof Peru.
