Differs from /. congesta in the leaves with fewer (8-1 D pair) nerves, and the much 

 smaller flowers with longer corolla-lobes and more slender anthers. Except in the 

 smaller leaves, and according to Kurz, the shrubby habit and glabrous peduncled 

 cyme and pale ro^e-coloured flowers /. sessiliflora does not seem to differ from 7. 

 rugosula, of the which it has the few nerves ; it is perhaps a mountain form, found 

 at 3000 to 4000 ft. elevation ; I have, however, seen but one poor specimen, kindly 

 sent by Dr. King. The flowers of /. rugosula are white. 



30. I. concinna, Br. in Wall. Cat. 6140; glabrous, branches sleifcler, 

 leaves not large petioled elliptic-lanceolate obtusely acuminate, cymes small 

 sessile or subsessUe corymbiform, flowers mostly pedicelled, calyx-teeth ovate- 

 lanceolate equalling the tube, corolla-tube 5 in., lobes linear-oblong obtuse, 

 mouth naked. Rubiacere, Wall. Cat. 8449. 



MALACCA; Mt. Ophir, Lobb, Maingay(KQvr Distrib. 847). SINGAPORE, Wallich, &c. 



Leaves 3-5 by f-l in., thin, pale brown when dry, hardly shining, base acute ; 

 nerves 10-12 pair, distinct arched; petiole ] in.; stipules in. broad, cusp com- 

 pressed rigid. Cymes quite sessile, or if peduncled with 2 small leaves at the top of 

 the peduncle ; branches erect ; bracts and bracteoles subulate ; pedicels short. Calyx- 

 teeth subacute. Filaments subulate, half as long as the slender anther. Stigma cleft. 

 Fruit size of a pea, pedicelled, globose or didymous, with persistent calyx-teeth. Seed 

 thin, ventrally very concave. 



31. Z. opaca, Br. in Wall. Cat. 6141 ; glabrous except the puberulous 

 cymes, branches slender, leaves petioled long narrow coriaceous linear-oblong 

 or lanceolate obtuse, base acute or rounded, upper pair sometimes sessile, nerves 

 20-25 pair usually deeply impressed, cymes shortly peduncled corymbiforni 

 dense-flowered, branches very short fastigate, flowers sessile or subsessile, calyx- 

 teeth very short obtuse, corolla-tube 1 in., lobes linear-oblong, month naked.
