latter character is constant. In a specimen of Anerincleistus Beccarii from Mt. Matang, 
collected by Dr. Haviland, all the ramifications of the panicle are supported and enveloped 
in a young state by densely tomentose ovoid or ovoid-lanceolate bracts, which very soon 
come off. In the specimen of A. Havilandii, the scars of bracts are still to be seen on 
the panicle, and it seems to me very likely, from their shape and size, that the bracts 
are also of a similar kind.
