CLERODENDRON L. 
Clerodendron vanoverberghii sp. nov. Euclerodendron, § Paniculata. 
Frutex circiter 4 m altus, pubescens; foliis ovatis, integris, 
circiter 13 cm longis, basi late rotundatis, subtruncatis, vel 
leviter cordatis, apice acuminatis, subtus glandulosis; paniculis 
terminalibus subdiffusis, bracteis paucis, parvis; calycis lobis 
ovatis, acutis; corolla circiter 2 cm longa. 
An erect shrub about 4 m high, all parts more or less densely 
pubescent with rather soft, spreading, brownish hairs. Younger 
stems somewhat 4-angled, densely pubescent. Leaves ovate, 10 
to 14 cm long, 10 cm wide or less, chartaceous, entire, the base 
broad, rounded, subtruncate, or slightly cordate, the apex 
sharply acuminate, the upper surface pubescent with scattered 
hairs, more densely pubescent on the nerves and midrib, the 
lower surface more densely pubescent than the upper, and with 
numerous, minute, shining, yellowish glands; nerves about 7 on 
each side of the midrib; petioles densely pubescent, 4 to 5 cm 
long. Panicles terminal, about 15 cm long and nearly as wide, 
the primary branches spreading, the lower ones subtended by 
reduced leaves, all parts pubescent. Bracts scattered, narrowly 
oblong-obovate, 5 to 6 mm long, pubescent, the bracteoles similar 
but smaller and somewhat spatulate. Flowers white, red in the 
center. Calyx pubescent, funnel-shaped, about 9 mm long, per- 
sistent and loosely enclosing the fruit, the lobes ovate, acute, 3 
to 4 mm long. Corolla-tube straight, cylindric, 1.8 to 2 cm 
long, 2 mm in diameter, somewhat pubescent, the lobes oblong, 
7 to 8 mm long, 3 mm wide, obtuse or acute, spreading or 
recurved. Filaments as long as the corolla-tube, exserted, 
slightly falcate, straight. Fruit (immature), globose, 5 mm 
in diameter, loosely enclosed in the persistent calyx.

A species manifestly allied to Clerodendron infortunatum L., C. villosum 
Bl., C, cumingianum Schauer, and C, brackyanthum Schauer, differing 
from all in its rather broad, acute, not slenderly acuminate calyx-lobes. 
It is, perhaps, most closely allied to C. brackyanthum Schauer, but has a 
very much longer corolla than has that species.
