tubo calycem excedente a basi amplificato intus glabro lobis 
oblongis obtusis intus praesertim dimidio proximali pubescentibus ; 
staminibus faucibus affixis breviter exsertis; ovario subgloboso 
quam stylus longiore. 
Oban ; n. 1256. 
A copiously branching seandent shrub. Leaves + 10 x 5 em., 
the largest 15 x 6:5 cm., grey-green in the dry state, palely shining 
on both surfaces; midrib somewhat prominent on the upper side, 
excavated down the middle; lateral nerves and the reticulum pro- 
minent on both sides; petioles + 1 cm. in length, concave on the 
upper side. Cymes very slender, 2-4:5 cm. long and about the same 
in diameter. Bracts +1 mm. long; pedicels mostly 1-3 mm. 
Calyx "5 m. long, its lobes 4 mm. Corolla 2:5 mm. long, the tube 
-75 mm., the lobes 1:75 mm. Filaments ‘4 mm. long; anthers as 
long, broadly ovate. Ovary "75 mm; style ‘5 mm. long. Fruit 
unknown. 
The very slender open cymes, the small flowers and relatively 
large leaves with the two lateral nerves running parallel to the margin 
without any interrupting curves, are the chief characteristies of this 
species.
