PHILIPPINE DIPTEROCARPACEAE. 255 
Fructus dobosus 1 ad 1.5 cm diametro, tubo calycino apice valde con- 
stricto, calycis segmentis 2 majoribus bblanceolatis 5 ad 8 cm longis, 
6 ad 10 mm latis, 3 minoribus lincaribus 1-3-nei-viiP, scabris. 
The conspicuous thing about this species is the chocolate brown tonien- 
tose under surface of the leaves and the large globose fruits, which are 
also chocolate brown. The leaves are oblanceolate or elliptic, more or 
less blunt or rounded at apex and base, and the margins slightly inroUed. 
Secondary nerves 12 to 15 pairs with intermediate shorter nerves which 
join the reticulate tertiary ones. Secondary and some of the tertiary 
nerves more or less uniting to form intra-marginal veins. Petioles 2 to 
4.5 cm long, rather slender, thickened in upper one-fourth of their length. 
Fruit globose, scurfy, dark-brown. The two long wings somewhat pubes- 
cent, with three or four principal nerves and numerous secondary' nerves 
which are transverse or oblique and reticulate. The three shorter wings 
linear, one- to three-nerved, somewhat scurfy like the fruit. 
Differs from A. mrtisii in size, shape and color of fruit and m color of 
tomentum. The last feature makes it very distinct in appearance trom 
A, thurifei'a. 
We have this spe.ie.s, thus far, only fron. the province, of Casayau and Tlncos 
Norte. The type was collected in the neighbhorhoo.l of Camalannuun,,an uhe.e 
it is said to grow in dense flat forest near sea level.
