COLLECTED IN DUTCH NEW GUINEA. 47 



This is allied to E. Jamholana, Lam., but the distant fewer prominent nerves 

 distinguish it readily. The leaves dry of a light greenish colour; the calyx is rugose 

 and shining when dry. The specimen is only in bud.

This has much the foliage of Jamhosa melastomafolia, Blume, of Amboiua, the 

 intramarginal veins, running from the base of the midrib at some distance from 

 the margin and little thinner than the midrib, giving the leaf a conspicuously 

 tliree-nerved appearance; but it is a true Syzygimn with terminal inflorescence, the 

 calyx-lobes reduced to low points, and the petals falling in a mass. The leaves dry 

 to brisrht brown.
