quatuor subzequales; quinta major, coloratior, concava, crenata, ad basin 
barbata. 
Drupa turbinata, compressa, ad basin calyce pentagono tecta. Nux oblonga, 
abortu forte bilocularis. Semina solitaria, hinc convexa inde plana. 
'The other plant, so nearly allied to the Kari/, I found first in the north-west 
parts of Mysore, where it is called Pounsi; and afterwards in the north-east 
parts of Bengal. Specimens from the former I gave to Sir J. E. Smith, and 
from the latter to the library at the India House. Both sets of specimens I 
have marked Vitex leucoxylon, although there is the same objection to this 
being called by that name that I have mentioned when describing the former 
plant. I shall add a description of the Pounsi in flower, taken in Mysore, and 
of the fruit taken in Bengal. 
Arbor mediocris ramulis compressiusculis, junioribus pubescentibus. Folia 
opposita, ternata vel quinata. Foliola petiolata, oblonga, apice nunc acuta, 
tunc obtusa, basi semper cuneata, integerrima, glabra, costata, venosa ; 
exterius utrinque basi inferiore productiore obliquum. Petiolus communis 
semiteres, canaliculatus, pubescens, mediocris, non stipulaceus: partiales 
brevissimi, canaliculati. 
Pedunculus axillaris, erectus, solitarius, teres, petiolo brevior, pubescens, di- 
chotomus bifurcationibus floriferis. Bractece ad panicule divisiones mi- 
nutze, opposite. Flores subsessiles, albi. 
Calyx erectus, quinquedentatus. Corolle tubus incrassatus, calyce duplo lon- 
gior ore compresso, obliquo: limbus planus, profunde quinquefidus: /a- 
ciniee quatuor superiores oblongze, obtuse, lateralibus paulo longioribus ; 
ima maxima, medio barbata, rugosa, subunguiculata, reniformis, subcre- 
nata. Stamina didynama, pilosa, parallelo-approximata, erecta. Anthere 
parvae, exsertae. Germen superum. Stylus subulatus, situ et longitudine 
filamentorum majorum. Stigmata duo, acuta, zequalia. 
Drupa oliveformis, calyce parvo integro plano suffulta, succulenta. Nux 
solitaria, oblonga, unilocularis, monosperma, sed hinc insculpta cavitate 
magna, substantia suberosa oppleta. 
It is very probable that in the plant of Ava there may be a similar structure
