The Perak plants, especially Wray 4279 (see figs.), differ 
slightly from Maingay’s Malacca specimen in the greater 
development of the anther hairs. The anthers in the ” Perak 
plants are densely hairy not only at the base ae se all along 
the margin or line of dehiscence of ihe anther c 
Maingay K.D. 1038, on which Clarke founded “his doubtful 
variety fructuosa (Flor. Brit. Ind. iv. p. 88), proves to belong to 
S. ovalifolia, Wall. 
King’s Collector 8190, a fruiting specimen from the Goping 
District, Perak, cited under S. Maingayi, by King & Gamble 
Le. is wrongly assigned to that species and should be referred 
to S. Curtisii, King & Gamble. It differs from fruiting 
specimens of S, Mai ging more particularly in the shape of the 
' lenticels, the stouter, more coriaceous leaves with inconspicuous 
3 d 
veins, and in the larger frui 
Curtis 3667, from Penang, has unfortunately not been seen.

In preparing the original description the beard at the base 
of the anthers was overlooked and the species is wrongly placed 
in the ey given in A.B, 1911, p. 286; it id og to be allied 
to S. barbata, A. W. Hill, though the corolla tube is much 
act The ‘corolla lobes are glabrous, but there is a dense 
ting of woolly hairs at the throat of the corolla. The.top of 
the ovary and the base of the style are beset with erect hairs. 
Merrill’s specimen from Apulit Island in Taytay Bay at the 
N.E. e nd of Palawan or Paragua almost certainly belongs to 
S. ovata; the flowers unfortun tunately are immature, but the 
woolly aaeacken of the corolla hairs, the bearded anthers and 
hairy style can seen. ruit is a small globular berry 
Whitford’s specimen from Lamao river, in the Province cf 
Bataan, Luzon (in herb. Bur. Sc.) resémbles S. ovata, especially 
Merrill 9431, but the oniias have fallen, and the fruit is cer- 
tainly larger.
