According to E. D. Merrill, from whom the Amboina speci- 
men was received, this species probably represents Rumphius 
Sirioides which has not previously been identified. 
The broadly elliptical leaves in the Amboina plant measure 
as much as 16 cm. long by 9°5 cm. broad. They are conspicu- 
ously triplinerved,' and there are five well-marked veins. The 
corolla measures 6 mm., the tube being equal in length 
to the lobes. The anthers are 1-125 mm. long, and the fla- 
ments, which measure 1° mm. in length, carry the anthers 
to the top of the corolla lobes. In the New Guinea specimen 
the length of the corolla is only about 4:5 mm., but there seems 
very little doubt that both specimens should be referred to 
S. barbata.

Glasgow have obovate leaves cuneate at the base, and the wis 
are unusually slender. The tree is characteristic of the d 
regions of India and Ceylon and the only record of its occurrence 
urma is from the Prome Hills, where ae ig eonsty resemble 
those of the drier parts of India. As the tree bears no native 
Burmese name it seems possible that it may eve been introduced 
from India. 
The Burma material is very poor, no flowers being present, but
