at the base, attached to base of petals and, more or less, to each 

 other, forming at least an indication of a monadelphous condition. 

 Anthers almost round and equal. Connective prolonged into a 

 tapering awn, distinctly longer than the anther.' Gynoecium 

 hour-glass shaped, the ovary subspherical, the stylopodium as 

 long as the ovary and almost columnar. The stylopodium 

 abruptly narrowed into the style, which is rather less than half 

 as long. The stigma is shallowly notched. Fruit 1 to 1.3 cm 

 long and about 1 cm in diameter, roughly conical, apiculate. 

 Calyx-wings of about equal length and less than two-thirds the 

 height of the fruit. The wood is said to be more durable than 

 that of Molave (Vitex spp.). 



Luzon, Cagayan Province, near Claveria, For. Bur. 19987 Bernardo, 

 August, 1913 (type). It is also represented by the following specimens: 

 For. Bur. 20453 Bernardo, in flower, May 30, 1913; For. Bur. 1777b, 

 17775, 17776 Curran, and For. Bur. 20454- All of these are from the 

 same part of the province as the type. The local name is narec. 



The stylopodium resembles that of Hopea helferi Brandis, Journ. Linn. 

 Soc. Bot. 31 (1895) p. 62, t. 2, f. 2, but is relatively longer. The stamens 

 are like those of H. helferi (1. c. fig. 1) and like those figured for H. 

 javanica Burck, Ann. Jard. Bot. Buitenz. 2 (1887) 235, t. 29, f. 7. 



Some sterile material in the herbarium representing collections in some 

 other provinces may belong here, but the identifications are very doubtful. 

 2. BALANOCARPUS BRACHYPTERA sp. nov. 



Arbor. Folia chartacea, elliptica, oblonga vel ovato-lanceolata, 

 breviter acuminata, basi rotundata vel subcuneata, margine cre- 

 nulata, glabra, 5.8 ad 7.3 cm longa, 2.7 ad 3.8 cm lata; nervis 

 secundariis 10 ad 12, tertiariis inconspicue reticulatis; petiolo 3 

 ad 5 mm longo. Fructus ovoideus, circiter 1 cm longus. 



A medium sized tree. Leaves chartaceous, elliptic or oblong to 

 ovate-lanceolate, apex blunt-acuminate, base rounded or subcune- 

 ate, margin crenulate, glabrous except along the principal veins, 

 where there is a sparse pubescence, mainly of grayish pilose hairs, 

 with hairy domatia in the axils of veins on under side of leaf, 

 5.8 to 7.3 cm long, 2.7 to 3.8 cm wide. Secondary veins 10 to 12 

 pairs, tertiary veins rather indistinct, mainly reticulate ; petioles 

 3 to 5 mm long. Flowers unknown. Fruits ovoid, about 1 cm 

 long and 9 mm in diameter, borne in short axillary panicles. 

 Calyx-lobes triangular-ovate, imbricate, rather closely surround- 

 ing the fruit, and a little shorter than the fruit. Margins of 

 the sepals frequently brownish and scarious, in one immature 

 fruit, very slightly reflexed. Fruit conical, faintly pubescent, 

 with thin pericarp, the short style projecting through a small 

 circular depression at the apex. Style glabrous, about 0.5 mm. 

 long.
