IX, C, 6 Merrill: Dilleniaceae Novae 529 
basal parts rather densely pubescent. Seeds angular, dark- 
brown, about 1 mm long. 
PANAY, Dumarao, Merrill 6701, March 25, 1910, in shaded ravines along 
small streams, altitude about 100 meters. 
A species probably as closely allied to Saurauia subglabra Merr. as any 
other, and greatly resembling it in vegetative characters. It differs in its 
rather densely fascicled shorter cymes which are distinctly pubescent and 
mostly from the trunk and larger branches, and its puberulent ovary and 
pubescent style bases. 
SAURAUIA PAPILLULOSA sp. nov. 
Arbor 10 ad 12 m alta ramulis junioribus inflorescentiisque 
furfuraceis et adpresse breviter setosis, subtus foliis plus minusve 
furfuraceo-papillulosis; foliis oblongis ad oblongo-obovatis, 
coriaceis, usque ad 14 cm longis, acutis vel obscure acuminatis, 
basi acutis ad subrotundatis, nervis utrinque circiter 10; inflores- 
centiis axillaribus, cymosis, pedunculatis, bracteatis, paucifloris, 
4 ad 9 cm longis; sepalis extus furfuraceis et leviter setosis; 
stylis 4 vel 5, basi unitis. 
A tree 10 to 12 m high, the branches grayish or brown, the 
younger ones densely furfuraceis and appressed-setose, the setae 
short. Leaves coriaceous, oblong to oblong-obovate, 7 to 14 
cm long, 2 to 5 cm wide, acute or obscurely acuminate, base acute 
to subrounded, margins apiculate-serrulate, the upper surface 
pale or dark-colored when dry, with few, scattered, subfurfur- 
aceous setae, the lower pale, with numerous, short, furfuraceous 
papillae; lateral nerves about 10 on each side of the midrib, 
prominent, curved, the reticulations distinct; petioles 1 to 1.5 
em long, furfuraceous and appressed-setose. Cymes axillary, 
few-flowered, solitary, long-pedicelled, all parts more or less fur- 
furaceous and appressed-setose, the bracts subtending the few 
short branches broadly ovate, concave-navicular, 8 to 10 mm 
long, about 8 mm wide, acuminate, furfuraceous and slightly 
setose, apiculate-toothed, sessile or on short stalks; branches 
few, 2 cm long or less and only at the upper part of the inflores- 
cence, the whole inflorescence 4 to 9 cm long. Flowers white, 
about 1.8 cm in diameter. Outer three sepals narrowly elliptic 
to obovate-elliptic, about 6 mm long, 3 to 4.5 mm wide, more or 
less furfuraceous, the inner two petaloid, broadly elliptic, about 
8 mm long and 5 mm wide, glabrous except for the median line 
in the lower part. Corolla-lobes free nearly to the base, broadly 
elliptic to orbicular-elliptic, 8 mm long, retuse. Stamens about 
20, the filaments and anthers each about 3 mm long. Styles 
united for the lower 1 mm, the arms 4 or 5, about 3 mm long.
