 Astrocalyx Merrill gen. nov. in Philippine Journ. of Sei. V (1910). p. 203. 



This new genus belongs in the Astronieae, and is perhaps most 

 closely allied to the Bornean monotypic genus Plethiandra. It is, ho- 

 wever, very different l'rom that genus and from all others in the tribe 

 and family. Characteristic features are its prominently 5-lobed star- 

 shaped calyx, and especially its very numerous stamens, the anthers 

 being slender and gradually narrowed to the base, opening by two 

 terminal slits, the cells being produced into very short, compressed 

 tubes, the connectives not produced and in no way appendiculate. 

 Ä. pleiosandra Merrill 1. c- p. 203. — Luzon (Aguiiar n. 14349, Fox- 

 worthy n. 8983).
