inent, rather lax; petioles stout, densely stellate-pubescent, 1 
to 2 cm long. Inflorescences on the trunk, of sessile, hemi- 
spherical, rather dense fascicles 2 to 3 cm in diameter, slightly 
hirsute, the pedicels 3 to 5 mm long, the bracteoles linear- 
lanceolate, 1 to 2 mm long. Calyx oblong-ovoid, about 3 mm 
long, 1.8 mm diameter, equally 4-toothed, the teeth narrowly 
ovate, acute, 0.5 mm long. Corolla dark-red, about 7 mm long, 
cylindric, 4-lobed, slightly glandular and pubescent externally. 
Anthers oblong, 3 mm long, glandular on the back. Fruit glo- 
bose, the lower one-half enclosed in the calyx, about 4 mm in 
diameter, containing 4 pyrenes. 
Mindanao, District of Zamboanga, Port Banga, in canyons in forests, 
altitude about 20 m, For. Bur. 9321 Whitford & Hutchinson, January 13, 
1908. 
A species well characterized by its cauline, fascicled inflorescence, in 
this character differing from all the other species of the genus known 
to me. Allied to C. ramiflora Merr., but with a quite different indu- 
mentum. 
CALLICARPA DOLICHOPHYLLA sp. nov. 
Arbor parva, glabra, vel partibus junioribus pilis simplicibus, 
non stellatis, munita; foliis lanceolatis, chartaceis, 15 ad 30 cm 
longis, 2.5 ad 7 cm latis, subtus glandulosis, apice tenuiter acu- 
minatis, basi acutis vel acuminatis; nervis utrinque 13 ad 16; 
cymis axillaribus, solitariis, laxis, usque ad 6 cm longis, pedun- 
culis quam petioli longioribus. 
A small tree, entirely glabrous, or the younger parts more or 
less pubescent with simple, not stellately arranged hairs, a few 
hairs sometimes persistent on the leaves, especially beneath. 
Branches terete or somewhat compressed, smooth, brown, gla- 
brous or somewhat pubescent when young. Leaves lanceolate, 
chartaceous, 15 to 30 cm long, 2.5 to 7 cm wide, mostly entirely 
glabrous except the younger ones which are sometimes puberulent 
or pubescent, the base acute or acuminate, the apex rather slen- 
derly acuminate, the margins crenate-denticulate or subentire, the 
lower surface distinctly yellow-glandular, the glands in minute 
pits; petioles 1 to 2.5 cm long; nerves 13 to 16, distinct, curved- 
ascending, anastomosing, the reticulations subparallel. Cymes 
axillary, solitary, lax, glabrous or somewhat pubescent with 
simple hairs, 6 cm long or less, often as wide as long, the ped- 
uncles longer than the petioles. Flowers apparently reddish. 
Calyx cup-shaped or somewhat funnel-shaped, 1 to 1.5 mm long, 
with 4 obscure, short teeth. Corolla somewhat exserted, 2.5 to 
3 mm long, glabrous, the tube somewhat enlarged upward.
