pura Hotel, it was probably a survivor from the Botanic Garden 
which formerly existed there.

_ A small tree (Clarke); young parts pubescent; 1. sub- 
opposite, or alternate, about 24 in.; elliptic lanceolate, cune- 
ate at base, obtuse or subacute at apex, scabrous-hispid 
above, pubescent beneath; petiole 4 in.; fls., according to 
Clarke, ‘‘in small tomentose corymbs, with a tomentose 
tubular and campanulate, soon glabrescent calyx; and 4, 
4-4 in. corolla lobes’’: drupe % in. ovoid. 
Dry region rare, Kuchaveli, on exposed rocks near the sea (H. 
Nevill). 
Also in S. India. 
The fruit is said to be sweeter and pleasanter than in the other 
Ceylon species. 
Wight erroneously identified this with De Candolle’s plant and I 
cannot see how his name can be retained.
