 rotate, rounded apices, undulated margins, tomentose on 

 both sides. 



Staminodes 8, epipetalous, opposite and alternate with 

 corolla segments, 3 mm. long ; anthers barren, glabrous, not

Fruiting calyx enlarged, woody, flattened, intersegmental 

 areas are straightened and outline of calyx is tetrahedral

 long, 20 mm. wide, 11 mm. thick ; testa umber-brown, 

 shining ; endosperm copious, ruminate ; embryo white,

Seedlings epigeal, cotyledons detached early, epicoty- 

 ledonary axis well developed ; cotyledons white, feebly

Timber. This is of medium quality and belongs to the red 

 kind. The red colour intensifies from Avithout inwards and 

 local black strands occur here and there. The coloured 

 heartwood is not usually large : some specimens, however, 

 yield a large black and brown streaked heartwood of 

 considerable beauty and value. The sapwood is much less 

 durable than the heartwood, in consequence of the wide
