Near C. diversifolia Kina. (t. 85, A), from which this is quite 
distinguishable by the lanceolate leaves with inconspicuous second- 
ary veins. Very near C. argentea var. 8. martabanica A, DC.; but 
the leaves of the present plant are thinner and less coriaceous, the 
petioles are much shorter, and primary lateral veins are fewer.
