A species widely cultivated in Indo-China, and Malaysia for 
its edible fruits; probably introduced in China, where it has not 
hitherto been reported. 
KOELREUTERIA Laxmann 
Arbor circiter 10 m alta, partibus junioribus leviter pubes- 
centibus; foliis saltem ad 35 cm longis, bipinnatis, pinnis 3- vel 
4-jugatis, circiter 20 cm longis; foliolis integris, subcoriaceis, in 
siecitate castaneis, subtus pallidioribus, oblongo-ovatis ad 
oblongo-ellipticis, 7 ad 10 em longis, acute acuminatis, supra ad 
costa pubescentibus, subtus in axillis barbatis; paniculis amplis; 
floribus 5-meris, petalis lineari-oblongis, glabris, 9 mm longis, 
~ acutis, basi obscure auriculatis; capsulis membranaceis, glabris, 
oblongo-ovoideis, circiter 3 cm longis, leviter acuminatis. 
A tree about 10 m high, the younger parts somewhat pubes- 
cent, ultimately nearly glabrous. Leaves at least 35 cm long, 
bipinnate, the primary pinnae 3 or 4 pairs, about 20 cm long, 
the primary and secondary rachises reddish brown, somewhat 
pubescent on the upper and lower surfaces, which are shallowly 
but widely channeled; leaflets entire, subcoriaceous, oblong-ovate 
to oblong-elliptic, 7 to 10 cm long, 3 to 4.5 cm wide, the base 
acute to rounded, slightly inequilateral, the apex rather slenderly 
and sharply acuminate, the upper surface castaneous when dry, 
glabrous except for the pubescent midrib, the lower surface paler, 
rather conspicuously bearded in the axils; lateral nerves about 
10 on each side of the midrib. Panicles ample, apparently about 
as long as the leaves, the rachis and branchlets lenticellate, red- 
dish brown, glabrous, the younger branchlets somewhat pubes- 
cent. Flowers yellow. Sepals oblong-ovate, about 2 mm long, 
their margins slightly ciliate. Petals 5, linear-oblong, subacute, 
about 9 mm long, 1.2 mm wide, glabrous, the base obscurely 
auriculate, the short claw somewhat pilose. Filaments 4 mm 
long, more or less pilose. Ovary ellipsoid. Capsules (not quite 
mature) inflated, oblong-ovoid, acute or slightly acuminate, gla- 
brous, about 8 cm long and 2 cm in diameter. 
Kwangtung Province, Shuikwaan, F. A. McClure 7060. On 
river banks near the monastery at low altitudes, September 8,

The second representative of the genus to be found in Kwang- 
tung Province, rather strongly characterized by its entire leaflets.
