nerves on the under surface of the leaf are markedly rufous- 
tomentose. The plant appears to be a distinct species, an 
has been described under the name S. narcondamensis (see p. 203). 
There is also a leaf specimen from the Nicobars détlented by 
Kurz in 1875 (no. 26101), preserved at Kew which is unlike any 
other known species from these Islands or from the Andamans.

This is up to the present the only — of Strychnos known 
from the Island of Panay. The hairy flask-shaped ovary and 
bearded anthers distinguish it from other short-tubed species 
with triplinerved leaves. S. panayensis agrees with S. ovata, 
A. W. Hill, in the character of the anthers and ovary, but is 
easily distinguished by its leave’ and larger, more densely 
bearded anthers.
