The leaves pubescent beneath bring this tree near to the species 

 described from somewhat incomplete material as D. tonkin&nsis, 

 of which the fruits are known but not the flowers, and which is 

 therefore only tentatively considered a member of the group 

 Ovatae. D. Lacei. however, cannot be referred to D. tonkinensi* 

 owing to its inflorescences being terminal.
