formibusque, majoribus oblongis, 7 ad 11 cm longis, longe 
petiolatis, basi longe decurrentibus, minoribus breviter petio- 
latis, ovatis, obtusis, circiter 1 cm longis; infructescentiis um- 
bellatis vel depauperato-cymosis, longe pedunculatis, calycis 
cupulatis, circiter 4 mm longis, lobis oblongis, truncato-obtusis, 
circiter 1.5 mm longis; folliculis 18 cm longis, 2 mm diametro. 
A scandent, nearly glabrous shrub, the branchlets apparently 
somewhat fleshy, pale brownish when dry, somewhat angular, 
about 5 mm in diameter, sparingly appressed-pubescent. Leaves 
coriaceous, obscurely crenate or undulate-crenate, sometimes 
nearly entire, in very unequal pairs, the upper surface dull 
olivaceous, the lower surface pale brownish; larger leaves of 
each pair oblong, 7 to 11 cm long, 2.5 to 4.5 em wide, long- 
petioled, acute to. very shortly and obtusely acuminate, the base 
long-decurrent; lateral nerves about 6 on each side of the mid- 
rib, prominent, curved-ascending, the reticulations obsolete or 
nearly so; petioles 2 to 5 cm long; smaller leaves of each pair 
ovate to oblong-ovate, obtuse, entire, about 1 cm long, very 
shortly petioled. Infructescences long-peduncled, the peduncles 
about 25 cm long, the flowers umbellately arranged or depau- 
perate-cymose at the apex, the subtending bracts oblong-elliptic 
to spatulate, 3 to 8 mm long. Calyx cup-shaped, about 4 mm 
long, slightly pubescent, the base narrowed, the lobes 5, oblong, 
truncate-obtuse, about 1.5 mm long; pedicels slightly pubescent, 
about 1.5.cm long. Follicles narrowly cylindric, about 18 cm 
long, 2 mm in diameter, glabrous; seeds very numerous, brown, 
about 1 mm long with a single hair at each end 2 to 2.5 mm 
in length.
