Has. Penang; on the bark of trees, over which it creeps - 
in wide patches.—Upright, branches very short, densely — 
crowded, fastigiate, thickly clothed with leaves which are : 
spirally twisted when dry. Leaves oblong, elliptical, ciliato- — 
dentate, with pellucid bases and a distinct margin, which is - 
broadest in the lower part, becoming gradually narrower up- - 
wards, and terminating a short way beneath the apex; apex 
often involute. Nerve running into a short mucro. Capsule 
unknown.—The structure of the leaves in this beautiful little | 
plant is so completely similar to what occurs in the other - 
species of Syrrhopodon, that we feel no hesitation, although - 
ignorant of the fruit, in referring it to that genus.
