42 PROCEEDINGS OP THE ROYAL SOCIETY OP QUEENSLAND. 



pubescent with a close ferruginous pubescence, easily rubbed 

 off in the dried fruit ; receptacle densely ferruginous-pubescent 

 with a close pubescence about 5 lines (11 cm.) in diameter. 



Astrolabe Range (type) ; Port Moresby. 



The Astrolabe Range specimens bear both flowers and frviits. The 

 Port Moresby specimens have leaves i-ather longer and narrower and 

 more markedly sessile than the Astrolabe ones ; the panicle is also 

 somewhat differently branched. But I have little hesitation in referring 

 it to the same species. 



Semecarpus sp. Leaves shortly petiolate, petiole about 

 1-i in. (4 cm.) long ; lamina up to 15 in. (37"5 cm.) long and 

 5^ in. (13'7 cm.) wide, glaucous beneath. Drupe (not seen 

 quite ripe) obliquely obcordate, about 1 in. (2 5 cm.) across ; 

 compressed, thinly pubescent ; receptacle obconical, about 

 ^ in. ("6 mm.) long, pubescent. 



Javararie. 



Probably represents a new species but the material hardly allows 

 me to name it. In addition to the above I collected a species in flower 

 only at Yule I.5land ; and in the Queensland Herbarium there is another 

 apparent'y undescribed species from Boku, collected by Mrs. H. P. 

 Schlencker ; the material consists of one leaf and a couple of ovoid, 

 fnlvous-pubescent fruits.
