>>A shrub or tree, the young shoots and inflorescence ferruginous-pubescent. 

 Leaves alternate; leaflets 8 — 12, elliptic-lanceolate, obtusely acuminate, tapering or 

 decurrent at the base, sessile or nearly so, shining and reticulate on both surfaces, 

 9 — 19 cm long, 2,6 — 5,2 cm broad. Petiole angular or winged in the upper part or 

 occasionally terete for its whole length, 7,6 — 12,7 cm long, the rhachis winged between 

 the insertions of the leaflets, especially towards the apex. Panicles ferruginous-pubes- 

 cent, racemose, slender and elongated, sometimes 2 proceeding from the same axil, 

 5 — 20,3 cm long, bracts subtending the very short branches of the panicle linear, 2 — 4mm 

 long. Galyx densely hirsute. Stamens 5 — 6 in the buds available. Capsule 2-lobed, 

 subtended by the persistent calyx-lobes, shortly stipitate, ferruginous-pubescent, the 

 surface wrinkled or reticulate, mostly 2-celled withl — 2 seeds in each cell, aboutl5 mm 

 long and 25 mm broad. Seeds dark and shining, more or less enveloped in a yellow 

 arillus.<<

>>A small rambling shrub, glabrous except the ferruginous-pubescent young shoots 

 and inflorescence. Leaves alternate. Leaflets 8 — 10, lanceolate or elliptic-lanceolate, 

 acute or acuminate, tapering or decurrent at the base and sessile or subsessile, margins 

 entire, shining on both surfaces, the lateral nerves and reticulations prominent, slightly 

 paler on the underside, 5 — 13 cm long, 1,9 — 3,2 cm broad, common petiole terete, 

 2,5 — 5,1 cm long, rhachis narrowly winged or angular in the upper part. Panicles 

 ferruginous-pubescent, very slender, in some specimens exceeding 30,5 cm in length, 

 with rather distant alternate branches of 2,5 cm or less bearing 2, 3 or more flowers 

 and subtended by linear bracts of 4 — 6 mm. Flowers on pedicels of 4 — 6 mm or less. 

 Galyx densely pubescent and deeply divided into 5 persistent, imbricate, ovate lobes 

 of 4 — 6 mm. Petals 5, glabrous, oblanceolate, recurved, not auriculate, 13 mm long.
