Mount Murud, No. 83, E. Mjoberg, October, 1922. from 

 between the altitudes of 1900 and 2400 m. 



A species well characterized by its conspicuously pistulate 

 leaves and not closely allied to other representatives of the 

 genus presenting this character that are known to me. Its 

 true alliance seems to be with Y2aeocarpus irrayi King of the 

 Malay Peninsula.
