DR. O. STAPF ON THE FLORA OF MOUNT KINABALU. 231 
nervis 3-5 subprominentibus, parce setulosæ, 4-43 lin. longæ lateeque, nigrescentes, 
interiores gradatim angustiores et in formam spathulatam cucullatam abeuntes, 
omnes cystolithis albis paucis vel pluribus conspers et margine ciliatule ; pedicelli 
breves. Perianthium 4-partitum, 1 lin. longum, extus paree setulosum ; segmenta 
obovata, valde cucullata, bina majora sub apice cornuta, bina angustiora gibboso- 
cornuta. Cyme feminee axillares, in receptaculum collects, sessiles, 2 lin. 
dimetientes, multiflore ; bractese extima elliptieze, sub apice cornute, 13 lin. 
longs, interiores sensim angustiores et in formam cucullato-spathulatam abeuntes, 
dorso setuloss; pedicelli demum elongati, 3 lin. longi. Perianthium nullum. 
Staminodia 3 minuta. Achenium ellipsoideum, supra medium tenuiter 4-costu- 
latum, $ lin. longum. 
Behind boulders of torrents, alt. 11.000 feet (Haviland, 1206). 
In the shape of the leaves and in the floral structure some resemblance to Æ. papil- 
losa, Wedd., is evident, but E. lithoneurum differs by the much firmer leaves and the 
coarser indumentum. There are no cystoliths visible, at least from outside, except on 
the nerves beneath, which are covered with thick, wedge-sbaped cystoliths. In any case 
it is a very well-marked species. 
MYRICACEA. 
Myrica JAVANICA, Blume, Bijdr. 517, Fl. Jav. (Myric.) p. 1. t. 7, 3 (forma alpina). 
From 11,000 to 11,500 feet (Low; Haviland, 1091). 
Distribution : Malaya; Java, Borneo. 
The leaves are much smaller than in the type, but all other characters point so clearly 
to M. javanica that I have no doubt in referring this plant to it. It is evidently a 
stunted alpine form. The leaves are 1-11 by 3-4 in. Low’s specimen, consisting of a 
few male scraps, is enumerated erroneously under Quercus monticola, King, in Ann. Bot. 
Gard. Calc. ii. 44. 
CUPULIFERA. 
Quercus HAVvILANDIT, Stapf, n. sp. (Pl XVIII. a. 1-4.) Arbor humilis. Ramuli 
dense brevissimeque fulvo-furfuraceo-tomentelli. Folia petiolo crassiusculo, furfu- 
raceo-tomentello, 2-23 lin. longo suffulta, late ovata, 13-24 poll. longa. 14-13 poll. 
lata, basi late rotundata vel subtruncata, abrupte breviterque acuminata, coriacea, 
supra exsiccando castanea, primo fulvo-furfuracea, mox, costá nervisque exceptis, 
glabrata, subnitida, subtus densissime atque persistenter ochraceo-furfuraceo-tomen- 
tosa, nervis lateralibus utrinque 10-12, supra impressis, infra prominentibus, venis 
transversis tenuibus. Stipule minute decidus. Spice androgyne vel subuni- 
sexuales vel unisexuales, terminales et ex axillis summis, simplices vel composite, 
folia paulo superantes, dense furfuraceo-tomentelle. Flores masculi solitarii (an 
semper ?) in axillis bractearum minutarum illis multo breviorum ; bracteolee 2 minute. 
Perianthium 6-partitum; segmenta ovata, obtusa, 3 lin. longa. Stamina 8-10. 
Flores feminei in spicis propriis quam masculz brevioribus vel ad basin spicarum 
androgynarum ; bracteze minute, ovate. Perianthium 4-6-lobatum. Styli, apice
