Camp VI e, 5500 ft. 
This plant has the habit of an Z/eodendron with bright yellow-green . coriaceous 
leaves. The small white trifid petals, the stamens rising from the notches of the thick 
10-lobed disc, and the superior one-seeded drupe are peculiar characteristics. I know 
no genus in the order at all closely allied to it.
