Endemic. 



This species was placed by me in the section Lysiphyllum , an error on my part, 

 as the entire leaves are q\iite incompatible with the section. It may be referable 

 to the section Pauletia.

This species is manifestly very closely allied to Bauhinia bidentata Jack of the 

 Malay Peninsula and Sumatra, but is readily distinguished by its much shorter 

 calyx-tube. It is also closely allied to B. pyrrhaneura Korth. of Sumatra. B. 

 copelandii does not appear to be distinct from B. leptopus Perk.
