A tree ; branches stout, smooth, black when" dry. Leaves very variable in size 

 and breadth, thickly coriaceous, often glaucous beneath, brown when dry ; nerves 

 erecto-patent ; petiole 1 in., slender. Panicles 2 in. long, peduncle very slender 

 glabrous; flowers shortly pedicelled, T ' 5 in. diam. Stamens hairy. Ovary glabrous. 

 I have described this species from Wallich's Nepal* plants with nearly glabrous 

 panicles, referring the tomentose flowered van & caniflora of Meissner to C. cecico- 

 daphne. Brandis and Gamble no doubt include it under their glanduliferum. If the 

 fruit whic.li is unknown be not different, I do not see how Wallich's plant is to be 

 distinguished from Q. Parthenoxylon. 



24. C. cecicodaphne, Meissn. in DC* Prodr. xv. 1. 25; habit and 

 characters of C. glanduliferum^ but panicles shorter crowded and densely 

 tomentose as are the flowers within and without, fruit H in. long oblong.

As stated under C. glanduliferum, this may prove a form of that plant, as Meissnei* 

 supposed ; it differs from C. Parthenoxylon in the tomentose panicles and large 

 oblong fruit. 



25. C. inunctum, Meissn. in DC. Prodr, xv. 1. 25 ; leaves alternate 

 3-5 in. loug-petioled elliptic-oblong or ovate obtusely acuminate penni- 

 nerved, nerves very faint finely reticulate beneath, panicles solitary slender 

 glabrous few-fld., flowers long-pedicelled glabrous. Kurz For. Fl. ii. 289.

A tree with slender branches which are black when dry. Leaves in Wallich's 

 specimens 3 in., in King's 5 in., thinly coriaceous, with two long sub-basal nerves; 

 petiole |-1 in. Panicle slender, 2-3 in. long, long-peduncled, subcorymbosely few-fld. ; 

 flowers T ' a in. broad, on slender pedicels ^-^ in. " Fruiting perianth funnel-shaped. 

 Berry ovoid the size of a pea," Meissner. Wallich's specimens are very imperfect, and 

 the fruit described by Nees is not on it. I suspect C. inodorum, Meissn., of Borneo, 

 may be the same plant, and both may possibly be referable to C. Parthenoxylon. 



26. C. Parthenoxylon, Meissn. in DC. Prodr. xv. 1. 26; leaves 

 alternate elliptic ovate or oblong subcaudate-acuminate penninerved often 

 glaucous beneath, panicles short nearly glabrous shorter than the- leaves, 

 perianth nearly glabrous without pubescent within, fruit ^ in. diam. globose.
