Haz. Nepal. Dr. Wallich, 1821, 
My specimens of this plant are but imperfect; and I refrain | 
from making any observations on the genus further than 
that the plant seems perfectly to accord with Philagonia 
of Blume, except in having the flowers sometimes pentamerous. 
It may be the Rhus above quoted of the late Mr. Don, though 
assuredly the style and stigma do not correspond with that 
genus,
