cm wide, the apex broadly rounded to broadly and shortly obtuse- 
acuminate, base somewhat decurrent-acuminate, margins crenu- 
late or crenulate-denticulate, the upper surface smooth and 
shining, dark-olivaceous when dry, the lower surface paler, 
brown, obscurely glandular-maculate; lateral nerves about 15 
on each side of the midrib, slender, distinct, anastomosing, more 
prominent on the lower than on the upper surface; petioles 5 to 7 
mm long. Flowers 5-merous, axillary, solitary, the peduncles gla- 
brous, curved, stout, about 2 cm long. Calyx glabrous, the lobes 
orbicular to orbicular-reniform, broadly rounded, coriaceous, 
concave, about 7 mm long, 6 to 8 mm wide, margins sometimes 
slightly ciliate, not glandular. Petals obovate, broadly rounded, 
about 1.8 cm long, 1.3 cm wide, the exposed median portions of 
the back rather densely appressed-pubescent with pale hairs 
otherwise glabrous. Stamens about 50; filaments 4 to 8 mm 
long, slightly hirsute; anthers oblong-lanceolate, acute or acumi- 
nate, slightly hirsute, 4 mm long. Ovary ovoid, glabrous, 
narrowed upward into the glabrous style, 5-celled, the ovules 
indefinite. 
LuZON, Province of Rizal, Oriud, Loher 5604, December, 1905. 
A characteristic species, apparently allied to Adinandra lamponga Migq., 
but differing in many details. It is well characterized, among the Phil- 
ippine forms, by being nearly glabrous, the only pubescent parts being the 
very small vegetative buds, the median parts of the petals, outside, and the 
stamens. 
ADINANDRA MACGREGORII sp. nov. 
Arbor circiter 15 m alta, plus minusve villosa; foliis coriaceis, 
ellipticis ad oblongo-ellipticis, usque ad 10 cm longis, supra 
nitidis, gabris, subtus adpresse villosis, basi acutis ad subro- 
tundatis, apice breviter acuminatis, margine distincte minute- 
que glanduloso-denticulatis, nervis utrinque 12 ad 15, distinctis; 
sepalis extus villosis, petalis late ellipticis, rotundatis, circiter 
1.4 em longis; staminibus 35, antheris parce villosis; ovario 
4-loculare, dense pallide villoso. 
A tree about 15 m in height, the buds and growing branchlets 
very densely appressed-villous with pale hairs, the petioles, lower 
surfaces of the leaves, and flowers less densely villous. Branches 
terete, grayish, glabrous. Leaves coriaceous, elliptic to oblong- 
elliptic, 5 to 10 cm long, 2.5 to 4 cm wide, apex shortly acuminate, 
base somewhat rounded to somewhat acute, margins very 
minutely glandular-denticulate, the upper surface olivaceous 
when dry, glabrous and shining, the lower much paler, with 
scattered, more or less appressed, pale hairs; lateral nerves
