_Thave every reason to imagine this will rae anew genus; 
its essential character, being, I think, very distinct from any 
of those hitherto described; nor do I believe it was known 
to Dr. Kénig, for I have never met with it but amongst the 
Circar mountains, where he never was, 
_ It delights in such soil as is gexerally found on the banks 
of rivulets, water-courses, &c. where it grows to be a tree of 
a middling size. Flowering time the cold season, 
Trunk straight ; bark ash-coloured. Head large, spend 
ing, very ramous; young shoots covered with a brown mealy 
dust. Leaves. alternate, petioled, broad-cordate more or 
less from three to five-angled, irregularly-dentate, from three 
to five-nerved ; both sides downy ; there are also small tufts 
of stellate hairs dispersed over both sides, together with a- 
farinaceous dust; from three to six inches psp way ; on the 
middle nerve a little below the middle, and sometimes also — 
on the two next to it is an oblong, hollow, yellow gland. 
Petioles round, from two to three inches long, covered with 
brown farina. Panicles terminal, large, globular, crowded, 
many-flowered.. lowers numerous, middle-sized, pure 
white, collected in small umbellets, many of which make a
