Maingay collected in Malacca (No. 299 of the Kcw distribiitiou) 

 a form^ith fruits the valves of wliicli are distinctly attenuated at 

 the base, and widest (4-5 mm.) about 1 inch above it, the wings of 

 the pyrenes also conforming more or less to the shape of the valves. 

 There is no other difference between this and Griffith's plant, and I 



consider it merely as an individual variation.— Otto Staff.
