234 Dr. Francis Hamiuron’s Commentary 
sylvestris of Rumphius, as I have said in a Commentary on the Herbarium 
Amboinense (i. 149. t. 53. f. 1.), his Bergera Kenigii must be totally different, 
belonging to the order of 4ralie, while the Kari Bepou belongs to the Au- 
rantic. 
The Bergera Kenigii of Roxburgh in the dialect of Bengal is called Paner, 
and is common in all the eastern parts of that country, as I have seen it both 
in Tripura and Kamrupa, on which account I shall call it Camunium ben- 
galense, foliolis serratis, caule frutescente. 
Caulis fruticosus, 3—5 pedes altus. Ramuli virides, teretes, glabri. Folia 
alterna, internodiis longiora, cum impari pinnata. Foliola utrinque 5—8 
sparsa, petiolata, serrata, glabra, venosa, pellucido-punctata: terminali 
lanceolato-ovato ; lateralibus posterius angustatis, semiovatis ; inferioribus 
brevissimis, obtusis; superioribus elongatis, acuminatis. Petiolus communis 
non stipulaceus, brevissimus, basi incrassato teres, pubescens. Rachis teres. 
Petioli partiales brevissimi, supra plani. 
Corymbus terminalis, foliis brevior, erectus, compositus e ramis subtrichotomis, 
pubescentibus.  Bractee ad corymbi divisiones minutz. Flores albi, 
odorati. 
Calyx minimus, inferus, quinquedentatus. Petala quinque patentia. Fila- 
menta decem receptaculo hypogyno plano mellifero inserta, subulata, 
erecta; quorum quinque petalis opposita breviora. dAnthere oblonge, 
compressa, obtuse. Germen oblongum. Stylus crassus. Stigma sub- 
rotundum, umbilicatum. 
Bacca supera, pulposa, nigra, ovalis, utrinque obtusa, compressiuscula, ante 
maturitatem coriacea, et punctis glandulosis aspersa, bilocularis, loculorum 
uno seepius sterili, et in fructu maturo fere evanescente. Funis umbilica- 
lis ex apice septi membranacei tenuis enatus, ad basin seminis descendens, 
ibique integumentum venosum dispersus. Semen hinc convexum, inde 
planum. Zntegumentum tenuissimum, membranaceum, embryoni laxe ad- 
herens. Embryo forma seminis basin versus subito nonnihil attenuatus, 
viridis. Cotyledones carnose, glanduloso-punctate, apice transversim bi- 
fide ; inferiore plana, exteriore hinc convexa.  Radicula teres, inversa, 
supera, inter cotyledones nidulans.
