aud some ending in a cyme of three flowers. Blume describes a species from New 

 Guinea, R. glauca, Mus. Bot. Lugd.-Bat. i. 79. The description is very incomplete, 

 but as the leaves are described as acute at the base, it cannot be this plant. 



Eugenia (§ Jambosa) stjbalata, Bidl., sp. nov. 



Rami graciles, 4-alati, alis paullo elevatis. Folia tenuiter coriacea, oblanceolata, 

 acuminata, basi cuneata, 10 cm. loiiga, 2'5 cm. lata, nervis 10-11 paribus, nei'vo 

 iutramarginali a margine 3 mm. reinoto, petiolis 2 mm. lougis. Ilores singuli 

 vel bini, terminales in ramis. Tedunculus gracilis, 4-angulatus, 1 cm. longus. 

 Bractece 2, lineares, angustissimse, 3 mm. longse. Pedicellus 1"5 cm. longus, teres. 

 Calyx elongato-turbinatus, in pseudo-pedicellum 5 mm. longum attenuatus, 

 1"5 cm. longus, lobis 4 ovatis obtusis marginibus scariosis 2 mm. longis. Fetala 

 orbicularia, 5 mm. longa et lata. Stamina 2 cm. longa, antheris linearibus oblongis. 

 Stylus gracilis, lougior. 



Camp I, 700 ft. 



Allied to Jamhosa synaptoneura, Laut. and K. Schum., but differing in the thinner 

 texture of the leaves, the longer pedicels, aud the longer calyx-tube with smaller lobes. 



Eugenia (§ Jambosa) longipes, Warb. in Engl. Bot. Jahrb. xiii. (1891} 391. 



Camp I, 700 ft. 



Distrib. Endemic in New Guinea. 



The petals and stamens are not described in the publication above quoted. The 

 petals are narrow at the base, obovate, more or less distinctly clawed, 3 mm. long, and 

 apparently pink, the stamens very numerous, 1 cm. long, and the filiform style 25 cm. 

 lonff. 



\] Eugenia (§ Jambosa) garcinioides, Bidl , sp. nov. 



Arbor ramis validulis. Folia coriacea, elliptica vel oblanceolata, basi breviter 

 attenuata, obtusa, 7-8'5 cm. lata, sicca cinnamomea, costa prominula, nervis 

 8 paribus tenuibus utrinque prominulis, iutramarginali obscuro, petiolis validis 



1 mm. longis atro-rubentibus. Cyma infra folia lateralis, lignosa, 4 cm. longa, 

 ramis tribus ramulosis, ramulis 4-floris. Flores remoti, pedicellis brevibus crassis 



2 mm. longis. Calycis tubus infundibuliformis, basi latus, baud costatus, 5 mm. 

 longus, lobis 4 rotundatis coriaceis 2 mm. longis. Fetala orbicularia, 5 mm. longa, 

 marginibus tenuioribus. Stamina breviuscula, 5 mm. longa, antheris ellipticis. 

 Stylus validulus, aequilongus. 



Camp III, 2000 ft. 



Another of the section Jambosa with fairly large flowers on the lateral cymes. This 

 species is distinguished by its stiff leaves with fine, rather inconspicuous nerves, the 

 intramarginal one being quite invisible. The leaves suggest those of one of the 

 Garcinias.
