or 3-clustered from the distal ends of the very short ultimate 
branchlets, sessile, similarly subtended by bracts; calyx sub- 
campanulate, 3.5 mm. long, nearly as wide across the top, pale 
green; calyx segments 4, very shallow and roundly obtuse, well 
separated, nearly equal; petals or rather corolla yellowish green, 
apparently 4 yet so well overlaid as to appear as a single calyp-

| hood when fully spread out; stamens 40 to 50, strongly inflexed 
in the young state; filaments unequal in length in the early 
stage of anthesis, pale creamy white, glabrous, incurved toward 
the apex, the longer ones 3 mm. long, sharply pointed at apex; 
anther yellow, broadly oblong, 0.75 mm. long, distinctly bilobed 
at the base, dorsally attached to the sinus; style of the same 
pale yellow color, strict, terete, 2 mm. long, ending in a small

chiefly above the middle, scattered, crookedly rebranched, the 
ultimate ones numerous; wood hard, odorless and without taste, 
brownish especially toward the center; old bark brown, some- 
what checked and scaling in irregular plates, smooth on the 
branchlets; twigs numerous, relatively short, terete, the young 
green portion glabrous. Leaves copious, opposite, ascending, 
coriaceous, shining dark green upon the slightly folded upper 
surface, paler green or even yellowish green beneath, obovate 
or obovately oblongish, short obtuse or rounded at the apex 
and terminating into a very blunt point, base cuneate, entire 
margins subinvolute in the dry state, curing blackish on the 
upper side and lighter or brown beneath, the expanded portion 
5 em. long by one half as wide above the middle, frequently the
