cm long, peduncled, densely flowered, the flowers racemosely 
arranged, white, their pedicels very stout, 1 to 1.5 mm long, each 
subtended by two or three, oblong-ovate, acute or acuminate. 1 
to 1.3 mm long bracteoles, the inflorescence slightly pubescent. 
Sepals 5, nearly free, imbricate, orbicular-reniform, rounded, 
about 1.2 mm long. Petals 5, oblong-elliptic, 3.5 to 4 mm long, 
1.8 mm wide, apex obtuse, narrowed below to the subacute base, 
free. Stamens 10, slightly united at the very base, narrowly 
oblong, cleft at the apex and bearing a sessile, oblong-ovoid, 0.8 
mm long anther at the cleft. Disk obscure, annular, glabrous. 
Ovary depressed, glabrous; style about 1 mm long. 
Leyte, Dagami, C. A. Wenzel 295, July 3, 1913, in forests. 
A species entirely different from most of the described ones in the genus, 
but apparently most closely allied to Walsura multijuga King. Its very 
short dense inflorescences are characteristic.

A dioecious tree 8 to 15 m high, glabi'ous except the somewhat

margins somewhat undulate or coarsely crenate-undulate, each 
undulation with a distinct but scarcely projecting gland; lateral
