34 J. Perkins: 



Simple leaves occur very seldom in the genus Aglaia. 

 ViDAL, Revision (1886) p. 84, describes a plant under the name 

 of Beddomea luxonieiisis which has simple leaves. In Exgler 

 and Prantl, Pflzfam. Ill, 4 Harms unites the genus Beddomea 

 with Aglaia. Harms gives a drawing of another Aglaia with 

 simple leaves, Aglaia simplicifolia, in Schumann and Lauterbach's 

 Flora der deutsch. Schutzgeb. (1900) p. 386. His species differs 

 notably from our species in the size of the flowers and there- 

 fore need not be taken into consideration. Koorders (in Mede- 

 deel. van's Lands Plantentuin XIX [1898] p. 635) describes an 

 Aglaia unifoliolata from Celebes. Vidal's plant I have not seen, 

 and it may after all prove, when compared with the original, 

 that my species is identical with that of Vidal's. The description 

 of ViDAL is so incomplete, that it is not possible to derive a 

 correct conclusion from the diagnosis alone.

 that of the terminal leaflet 2 — 2,5 cm long. Panicles crowded 

 towards the ends of the branches, axillary, on peduncles 5,5 — 

 11 cm long. Flowers 3 mm long, subcampanulate, on pedicels 

 somewhat longer than themselves. Calyx of 5 free, ovate, con-
