cept the impressed midrib, much paler beneath and densely 
covered with soft stellately grouped hairs, oblong to sub- 
elliptic or the smaller ones ovately oblong, apex abruptly 
acute to acuminate, base subcuneate or obtusely truncate, 
entire, the medium blades 2 dm. long by 1 dm. wide across 
the middle or a trifle below it, quite unequal in. size; 
midrib pronounced, with 7 to 9 oblique lateral pairs whose 
apices are reticulately united, cross bars conspicuous, all 
grayish brown pubescent beneath and the larger ones similar 
on the upper side; petiole stout, scurfy or short stellately 
hairy. Inflorescence suberect, from the uppermost leaf axils; 
peduncle twice as long as the petioles, similar in vestiture; 
the corymb paniculately branched, 1 dm. across; all the 
branches stellately scurfy, dirty brown, subtended by bracts, 
the lowermost of which are linear and measure nearly 2 cm. 
long; flowers mostly toward the ends of the ultimate branchlets; 
pedicels 1.5 mm. long, articulate at the middle; calyx cam- 
panulate or broadly cup-shaped, 1.5 or 2 mm. high, fully as 
wide across the truncate or with 5 nearly obsolete apiculations, 
hairy on the outer side; corolla regular, whitish on the outer 
and bluish on the inner side, 5 mm. long, the basal two 
thirds united, glabrous except on the outer side of the 5 
more or less oblong segments; stamens glabrous, 5, well 
exerted, the slender and blue filaments inserted upon the 
corolla tube toward the base; anthers oblong, bilobed at 
base and basifixed, retuse at the blunt apex, 2 mm. long; 
style also blue, at least as long as the stamens, also glab- 
rous, thickened toward the apex, bearing an obscurely lob-

glandular, subtended by the cyathiform calyx, light and 
shining red, sweet, 4-celled and with 4 seeds. 
Type specimens 10856 and 11102, A. D. E. aes. 
Todaya (Mt. Apo), District of Davao, Mindanao, June, 1909. 
The former number was called by the Bagobos ''Lay- 
au-pan" and was collected on hot slightly wooded ridges at 
3500 feet, south of the Baruring river. The latter number was 
called '*Nago" by the same natives and grew in compact 
soil of shrubberies at Daron along the coast. 
Its affinity is very close to C. manga Schauer, differing 
notably in the dense stellate hairs of the calyx, larger
