 43. Arborescent. Leaves alternate, shortly petiolate, obovately elliptical or 

 oblong, abruptly acuminate, obtuse at the extremity, 7-8 cm. long, 3-2| cm. 

 broad, entire on the margin, serrulate towards the apex, veins slightly pro- 

 minent on both sides, pallid beneath. Flowers axillary, solitary, long 

 pedunculate, glabrous, peduncles 3-4 cm. long. Sepals 5, strongly im- 

 bricate, cuneate at the base, ovate, acute, glabrous, somewhat thick, ciliate on 

 the margin, coriaceous, 8 mm. long, 6 mm. broad. Petals 5, cuneate at th(i 

 base, ovately narrowed, acuminate, somewhat thick, 10 mm. long, 3-4 mm. 

 broad, glabrous ; stamens nearly 30, 8 mm. long, filaments geniculate, slightly 

 pilose, anthers linear, pilose, as long as filaments, connectives produced. Ovary 

 4-celled, broadly ovoid, somewhat pilose, 2- nun. long, styles filiforrned, 

 somewhat glabrous, 8 mm. long, stigmas obscurely 4-lobed.

Near A. acuminata but differs from it in having glabrous styles 

 and stigmata which are obscurely 4-lobed ; also comes near A- formosana 

 HAYATA, but quite distinguishable by the larger flowers, numerous (nearly 30) 

 stamens, and 4-celled ovary.

Formos. p. 45 ; and Materials for a Flora of Formosa p. 42. 



This comes very near A. Millettii which has leaves shining velvety 

 beneath. In the present plant, leaves are quite glabrous on both sides or 

 slightly pubescent, but never velvety beneath.
