times 80-100 feet hi'/li (Knustler), usually 30-50 feet, trunk 2-3 feefc in 

 diam., branches glabrous. Leaves a foot long", leaflets terminal and in 2-3 

 more rarely I, opposite pairs, shortly petiolulate without sti pels, elliptic- 

 lanceolate entire apex caudate base caneate, 5-10 in. lono*, ] •5-2-5 in. 

 across, lowest pair rather smaller, thickly membranous shinino* above 

 dull beneath, with 6-9 pairs of ascending rather prominent latei'al 

 nerves and a very prominent midrib, quite glabrous on both surfaces, 

 petiolules '2 in. long. Racemes in very long narrow axillary panicles 

 towards ends of branches, J-1-5 feet long, 25 in. across ; individual 

 racemes subfastigiate 4-6 in. long with 10-12 solitary short-pedicelled 

 flowers ; pedicels '35 in. long, rusty-puberulous as are the peduncles and 

 main-rachis. Caly.v '25 in. lotig, rusty-puberulous, tube campanulate 

 rather longer than the triangular teeth, the two upper teeth connate 

 emarginate. Gorolla pure white "75 in. long, standard orbicular 2-auri- 

 culate at base of lamina, externally glalirous. Vexillary filament extend- 

 ing half way up the sheath or at lengtli free on one side only, or on 

 both. Ovary puberulous. Pod linear 7-13 in. long, l'5-2 in. wide,

A very fine species apparently extremely common in Perak. Mr. Kunstler notes 

 that it is usually found near river-courses or in wet low ground. 



11. MiLLETTiA UNIFOLIATA Prain. A handsome spreading tree 

 30-40 feet high, trunk 1 foot in diam., branches glabrous. Leaves consist- 

 ing of a solitary terminal leaflet, petiolulate without stipels, obovate- 

 oblong or lanceolate entire, apex acute rarely caudate, base cuneate, thick- 

 ly membranous shining above dull beneath, with a prominent midrib and 

 6-9 pairs of ascending lateral nerves not much more prominent than the 

 distinct secondary reticulations ; glabrous on both surfaces ; petiolnle 

 '25 in. long directly articulate with branch. Racemes in very slender 

 axillary panicles shorter than the leaflets, 3-4 in. long •25--35 in. across; 

 individual racemes short 3-5-fld. separated from each other by intervals 

 1 in. long ; peduncles and pedicles glabrous. Calyx '2 in. long, externally 

 glabrous, campanulate 2-bracteolate at base, bracteoles ovate-lanceolate 

 minute, teeth shorter than tube hirsute within. Corolla pure white "To 

 in. long, standard orbicular 2-auriculate at base of lamina, externally 

 glabrous. Stamens monadelphous in a sheath split along the vexillary 

 side. Ovary puberulous. Pod linear 6 in. long 1 in. across, flat, rather 

 woody, tapering to both ends, finely pale yellowish-velvety externally.
