I have some doubt regarding the identification of the above specimens, as tbe 

 leaves are 4 to t> jugate instead of 2 to 3 jugate as described by Perkins, while 

 our specimens of No. 422 Ahem have 5 jugate leaves, this number being cited by 

 Perkins in her description of the species.

A tree with alternate 4 to 5 jugate leaves, and large axillary many flowered 

 panicles nearly equaling the leaves, the flowers 3 mm. long, the stamina] tube 

 fiee from the petals. Brandies finely and densely brownish gray lepidote. Leaves 

 about 35 cm. long, the rhachis about 23 cm. long, more or less lepidote; leaflets 

 alternate, oblong or oblong ovate, 10 to 14 cm. long, 4.5 to (i cm. wide, chartaceous, 

 dull, glabrous above, only slightly lepidote on and near the veins beneath, short 

 blunt acuminate, the base usually rounded, often strongly inequilateral; lateral 

 nerves prominent beneath, to 12 pairs; petiolules about 5 mm. long. Panicles 

 20 to 25 cm. long, many branched, the primary branches often 15 cm. long, many 

 (lowered, the flowers racemosely disposed, the rhachis, branches, branchlets, short 

 pedicels and calyces more or less brown lepidote, the pedicels about 1 mm. long. 

 Flowers :j mm. long. Calyx shortly 5 lobed, the lobes acute. Petals 5, glabrous, 

 ohong elliptical obtuse. 3 mm. long, 1.5 wide. Stamina! tube free from tbe petals, 

 ovoid or obovoid, much contracted and nearly closed at the apex, glabrous, 3 mm. 

 long. Stamens 5, inserted below the middle of the tube, included, the anthers 

 1 .5 mm. long.

A species in some respects resembling Aglaia macrobotrys Turcz.. differing from 

 that species especially in its (lowers which are about twice as large. Somewhat 

 resembling Aglaia turczaninowii C. DC, but the stamina! tube not at all united 

 witb the corolla.

A variable species, to which Amoora lepidota Merr.. must certainly be reduced. 

 The stamens vary from to 10, and frequently the staminal tube is only slightly 

 united with the corolla.
