ARDISIA LANCEOLATA, Roxb. 
Woods at Kadondong, Pulau Tawar. 
Found only once in fruit. The leaves are not usually, strictly speaking, parallel-sided. 
The sepals are unusually large in proportion to the berry. 
A. CRENATA, Roxb. 
Very common round Pekan and elsewhere. 
This is the real * Mata Palandok " (Mouse-deer's eyes) of the natives, though the name is 
often applied to other Ardisias. It usually forms a small, often compact, bush, with 
rose-pink flowers and scarlet berries, very sweet and eatable. 
А. VILLOSA, Roxb. 
Woods at Kota Glanggi and Pulau Tawar. Common. 
A very charming small shrub, with a dark pink calyx, a lighter pink corolla, and 
scarlet berries.

Not common. Pulau Tawar. Flowers pink. 
A. OXYPHYLLA, Wall.

Common on the sea-shore at Kwala Pahang and Pulau Tiuman, and also met with at 
Kamposa in Kelantan. 
The oldest name for this is 4. humilis, Vahl, a peculiarly unfortunate one, as it is the

rose-coloured, the berries black.
