The alliance of this species is manifestly with Callicarpa blan- 
cot Rolfe, from which it is especially distinguished by its elliptic 
to oblong-elliptic, usually rounded or obtuse, never acuminate 
leaves.

siccitate castaneis, basi acutis, apice acuminatis, nervis utrinque

An entirely glabrous shrub, the branches grayish, 3 to 4 mm 
in diameter, marked with large petiolar scars; the branchlets

1.5 to 2.5 em wide, the upper surface dark-castaneous when dry, 
the lower much paler, base usually acute, often slightly inequi- 
lateral, apex distinctly acuminate; lateral nerves slender, 5 to 7 
on each side of the midrib, curved, anastomosing, close to the 
margins, the reticulations very lax; petioles 5 to 9 mm long. 
Inflorescences very slender, axillary, one- or at most few-flowered, 
the peduncles capillary, about 3 em long, each bearing one fruit 
and also presenting one or two scars at the apex as if there 
might have been two or three umbellately arranged flowers;

This species is allied to Cyrtandra glabrifolia Merr. (C. gla- 
bra Kranzl., non Jack) but differs in its smaller entire leaves 
and shorter petioles.
