Cupania mollis Standley in Journ. Washington Acad. XIII. (1923) 352. — »Branch- 

 lets subterete, finely tomentose, somewhat striate, glabrate in age; leaves abruptly 

 pinnate, the rachis and petiole together about 23cm long, finely tomentose; leaflets 

 about 14, oblong or elliptic-oblong, 8 — 13 cm long, 3,5 — 5 cm wide, obtuse, rounded 

 or obtuse at base, on petiolules 3 — 8 mm long, serrate with low appressed teeth, entire 

 toward the base, glabrate above, beneath paler, densely velvety-pilosulous with short 

 spreading hairs; panicles axillary, long-pedunculate, manyflowered, the branches finely 

 tomentose; flowers sessile or nearly so; capsule glabrous without and within, subclavate- 

 trigonous, narrowed below into a stout stipe 5 — 6 mm long, the body obtusely angulate,

In San Salvador: Salvador Calderon n. 1400 (Comasagua; Dec. 1922). 



»The fruit is similar to that of C. glabra Swartz, but the pubescence of the leaves 

 is al together different. The vernacular name is cola de pavo, a name applied to 

 various other trees of the family Sapindaceae.«
