obtuse at the base, pale beneath. Panicles axillary, very short, few-flowered. Sepals 

 broad-ovate or triangular-ovate. Petals oblong or elliptic oblong. Stamens alternately 

 shorter (much and irregularly dilated, concave within, Thw.} ; anthers small, cordate. 

 Dixk. short, thick, rather broader than the ovary. I have seen only scraps of this. I 

 take the characters from Oliver and Thwaites. 



3. G-. sapindoides, Lindl. in Wall. Cat. 6376 ; leaves 5-7-foliolate, 



C nicies branched from the base stout many-flowered, ovary 2-3-celled, 

 iry about as long as the thick style. 



PENANG, Wallich, Maingay. DISTRIB. Java. 



A tree 3 (? 30) feet high, with the trunk as thick as a man's thumb (Maingay']. 

 Branches terete, glabrous, Leaflets 4-9 in., oblong or lanceolate, subacuminate. 

 Panicles 1-3 in., subpyramidal, branches short stout. Flowers shortly and stoutly 

 pedicelled. Sepals orbicular-ovate. Petals oblong or narrow oblong. Disk small or 

 obsolete. Ovary shortly stipitate. Kurz (Journ. Beng. As. Soc. 1871, pt. ii. 49) sug- 

 gests that this will prove a form of O. chlorosperma, Sprengel (Cur. Post. 162), but I 

 do not see how this can be, Sprengel's plant being described as having terminal 

 inflorescence. 



4. G-. puberula, Lindl. in Wall. Cat. 6375 ; leaves usually 3-foliolate, 

 ovary > 4-5-celled shortly stipitate oblong pilose. Oliv. in Journ. Linn. 

 Soc. v* Siqjpl. ii. 39. 



PENANG and SINGAPORE, Wallich. 



Leaflets 2-4 by |-1| in., caudate -acuminate. Pedicels y^ A in. Disk small, adnate 

 to the ovary. Style very short. Perhaps a var. of G. pentaphylla, from which it differs 

 chiefly in the pilose ovary (Oliver). 



EXCLUDED SPECIES. 



G. CREXULATA, Turcz. inMosc. Bull. Soc. Nat. 1858, pt. ii. 250, is Murraya crenu- 

 lata, Oliv. (in Journ. Linn. Soc. v. Suppl. ii. 29), a native of Luzon and not of Sinca- 

 pore as Turczaninow states. 



13. XttlCRQXttES&IJaE, Blume. 



Unarmed trees. Leaves imparipinnate ; leaflets alternate, oblique. 

 Flowers in large terminal corymbose panicles. Calyx cupular, 3-5-toothed 

 or lobed. Petals 5, free, thick, valvate or subimbricate. Stamens 10, free, 

 inserted round a short or long disk, filaments linear-subulate, alternate 

 shorter. Ovary 5- rarely 2-6-celled ; style constricted at the base, deci- 

 duous, stigma obtuse or capitate ; ovules 2, superposed in each cell. Berry 

 small, dry, usually 1-2-seeded, septa spirally twisted. Seeds oblong, testa 

 membranous ; cotyledons leafy, crumpled, radicle long. DISTEIB. Species 

 3 or 4, tropical Asiatic and Oceanic. 



1. M. pubescens, Blume Bijd. i. 137 ; pubescent, leaflets 9-15 ovate to 

 broad lanceolate, corymbs subsessile or peduncled finely pubescent, calyx 

 cupular entire or 5-lobulate, ovary 5- rarely 2-4-celled more or less hairy, 

 stigma capitate slightly broader than the style, berry glabrous. Oliv. in
