A tree 20 to 25 m bigb the branches, petioles and infloresence 

 somewhat shining, minutely and very densely brown-lepidote. Leaves 

 alternate, odd-pinnate, 4- or 5-jugate, 20 to 25 cm long, the rachis and

 inequilateral ; nerves 10 to 12 on each side of the midrib, not prominent, 

 the reticulations fine, rather lax; petiolules 8 mm long or less. Panicles
