RUBIACE# (H. F. Wernham) 49 
Corolla-tube, 4-45 mm. long; lobes, 7:5 mm. long, 2 mm. broad. 
Anthers almost 5 mm. long. 
Distinct for its almost complete want of hairs extending even to 
the style. 
Cremaspora Talbotii Wernham sp. nov. Frutex ramulis 
= gracilibus junioribus fulvo-pilosis deinde glabrescentibus ; foliis 
petiolatis elliptico-oblongis supra glabris infra praecipue super 
venas fulvo-pilosis basi deltoideis vel vix rotundatis apice breviter 
acuminato acuto vel obtuso; stipulis subulato-setaceis ; floribus 
sessilibus in cymulis axillaribus 2—6-floris; calyce dense hirto- 
tomentoso ; corolla nisi in ore pubescente glaberrima. 
Oban; n. 287. 
Leaves up to 8:5 em. long and 3:5 cm. broad. The densely pilose 
leaf-stalks are about 6 mm. long usually, and the stipules, which arise 
from a hairy base, measure 7-8 mm. in length. The calyx is less 
than 1 mm. long, the corolla-tube barely 3 mm., and the lobes 
about 1mm. 
Related to the East African C. confluens K. Schum., but at once 
distinguished by the indumentum and by the glabrous corolla. 
Vangueria argentea Wernham sp. nov. Frutex ramulis 
gracilibus teretibus, novellis tomento ferrugineo minuto indutis ; 
foliis brevissime petiolatis ellipticis vel oblongis breviter et 
obtuse acuminatis basi rotundatis supra nisi in venis puberulis 
pilis perpaucis minutis sparsissime indutis subtus minutissime et 
densissime molliter argenteo-pubescentibus valde discoloribus ; 
stipulis a basi lato truncato anguste oblongo-apiculatis mox 
deciduis apicem versus glabrescentibus ; floribus axillaribus soli- 
tariis vel geminis pedicellis basi bracteolatis alabastra obovata 
acuta acuminato-mucronata aequantibus ; calyce brevissime den- 
tato ; corolla extus ut ovarium turbinatum glaberrima ad medium 
in lobos triangulares subeaudatos divisa; stigmate lobato ; bacca 
pisiformi. 
Oban; n. 215. 
Leaves 9-11 em. long, 4-5 em. broad; petiole 2-3 mm. long. 
Stipules, broad basal part 2 mm. long, apiculus a little longer. 
Pedicels, 5-7 mm. Calyx with ovary less than 2 mm. long. Corolla- 
tube 3-4 mm. long; lobes the same length, 2 mm. broad at the mouth. 
Berry 6-7 mm. in diameter. : 
Readily distinguishable by the silvery grey indumentum on the 
ey side of the leaves. Its nearest ally seems to be V. ozyanthus 
{. Schum.
