In Borneo: Ridley (Kudat). 



»This pretty shrub, I found some years ago near the sea in Kudat, and have had 

 in cultivation in the Botanic Gardens since. It is quite attractive with its sprays of 

 yellow flowers and red fruit, and its curious stipules. The petals are rather peculiar 

 in shape. They are minutely clawed at the base with a short cylindrical claw. The 

 lamina projects inwards just above forming a small sac at the base.«
