of Hooker and Bentham, under the mimber 8401F., and it is unquestionably the 

 Hongkong plant. We have also Calcutta Garden specimens from Griffith (Kew 

 Distrib. 2794) with the name W. attenuata. Voigt (Hort. Subub. Calcutta) couples 

 it with St. coriacea, giving to both the habitat "(China) Khasia hills," and so many 

 Chinese plants are Khasian that it may well be found there. 



12. W. long-ifolia, Hook, f. ; branches petioles leaves beneath and 

 cymes softly-tornentose, leaves petioled elongate elliptic-lanceolate or oblanceo- 

 late caudate-acuminate membranous, nerves 16-30 pairs, peduncles long slender, 

 flowers pedicelled, corolla pubescent. Ixora longifolia, G. Don Gen. Syst. iii.

PEXANG, Wallich, Phillips. 



Branches slender. Leaves 10-12 by 2-3 in., membranous, glossy above, brown 

 when dry, narrowed into the 1-1^ in. petiole, nerves very slender; stipules short, 

 broad. Peduncle very slender, 4-6 in., brachiate at the top; bracts in., filiform. 

 Flowers shortly pedicelled. Calyx-uctli subulate-lanceolate, as long as the tube. 

 Corolla not seen. Ovules 1 in each cell. 



13. W. grandifolia, Hook. f. ; leaves elliptic or obovate-lanceolate 

 caudate-acuminate glabrous, nerves 12-15 pairs, cymes long-peduncled tomen- 

 tose. flowers pedicelled pubescent ebracteolate at the base, corolla-tube much 

 shorter than the linear lobes. Ixora grandifolia, Br. in Wall. Cat. 6134. 



SINGAPORE, Wallich ; MALACCA, Griffith (Kew Distrib. 2795, 2796), Maingay 

 854. 



Branches glabrate. Leaves 5-12 by 2^-4^ in., membranous, blackish when dry, 

 polished above ; petiole f-1 in. ; stipules triangular, acuminate. Cymes brachiate, 

 long peduncled, or with long deflexed branches ; lowest bracts foliaceous, upper fili- 

 form. Flower-bads ^ in. Calyx-teeth rounded, shorter than the tube. Corolla-tube 

 short, nearly glabrous within. Ovules 1 in each cell. 



14. W. Wallicliii, Hook. f. ; glabrous, leaves long-petioled elliptic- 

 lanceolate caudate-acuminate, nerves 12-15 pairs, cymes sessile glabrous lower 

 branches long suberect, flowers 2-bracteolate at the base sessile, calyx-teeth 

 triangular acute, corolla glabrous, lobes linear-oblong much longer than the 

 short tube, throat woolly, seeds plano-convex. Stylocoryne Webera, Wall. Cat. 

 8401 1., for the most part. Pavetta weberrefolia, Wall. Cat. 6182 A., in part, B.

 DISTRIB Borneo. 



A bush; branches slender, and leaves black when dry. Leaves 5-7 by 1^-2 in., 

 membranous, usually shining above ; petiole slender, ^1 in. ; stipules triangular, cus- 

 pidate. Cymes 2-3 in., not brachiats, branches with sometimes a line of pubescence 

 on one side, lower suberect; bracts linear-lanceolate, persistent; bracteoles triangular, 

 acute. Corolla-tube in. ; lobes linear, much longer, margins sometimes, ciliate. 

 Style villous, stigma narrowly fusiform. Fruit size of a pea. Seeds plano-convex. 

 At first sight like W. odorata, but the cymes are glabrous, as is the much shorter 

 corolla-tube ; the flowers are sessile and 2-bracttolate, and the ovules solitary. A 

 similar plant from the confines of Birma and Assam, collected by Griffith on the 

 Tsegai hills, has shorter very coriaceous leaves, with fewer nerves. 



15. W. Kurzii, Hook. f. ; glabrous, leaves petioled elliptic- or obovate- 

 lanceolate acuminate, nerves 8-10 pair, cymes sessile glabrous, flowers pedicelled 

 ebracteolate at the base, calyx-teeth triangular obtuse, corolla glabrous, lobes 

 linear-oblong much longer than the tube, throat woolly, seeds concavo-convex.
