short petioled, obovate, cuneate and attenuated but at the same time slightly 
cordate at the base, a little repand, with a large depressed gland beneath on

, Roxburgh describes the petiole with “two opposite glands at the upper 
side of the apex, and sometimes near the base,” which we have not been able 
to observe on any of our specimens. The presence or absence of glands, 
however, and of pubescence, as Roth has already observed, is only of secon- 
dary importance. 7. Moluccana of Roxburgh, and probably of Blume (but 
not of Lamarck), is allied to this: it has precisely the same kind of fruit and 
=S flowers, but the petioles are short giving quite a different aspect to the 
plant. ? 
967. (4) T. Chebula (Retz :) leaves nearly opposite, shortly petioled, ovate 
or oblong, acutish or obtuse, obtuse or cordate at the base, quite entire, when 
young clothed particularly above with glossy silky hairs, adult ones ram 
and sometimes glaucous, upper surface inconspicuously dotted, under closely 
retieulated with purplish veins : glands one on each side at the apex of the pe- 
tiole, with occasionally some additional ones on the margin towards the base 
of the leaf: spikes terminal, often panicled: drupe oval (about 14 inch long 
by an inch in diameter), glabrous ; nut irregularly and obscurely es

„From this T. citrina, Roxb. (who quotes Geertn. fr. 2. t. 97. n-s), is said to 
differ by the leaves between oblong and broad-lanceolate tapering at the base, 
the drupe oblong-lanceolate (2 inches long by gds of an inch in diameter),
