425. DiSi'OKUM puLLUM var. multii'lokum. 



Stems several, about 2 feet tall, soinetimes brauched. Leaves 

 lanceolate acuminate, slightly narrowed at the base, 4 

 inches long, 1-2 inches wide, with a short petiole ^ inch long. 

 Flowers five to six in axillary or subterminal umbels, pedun- 

 culate on peduncles, h-1 inch long, pedicels 1-1^ inch long. 

 Sepals and petals ^ inch long. Sepals lanceolate, oblong 

 cuspidate, | inch long, greenish tinged with red saccate at 

 the base, not spurred. Stamens about half as long, filaments 

 broad flat, tapering upwards about as long as the anthers. 

 Anthers thick elliptic with a rounded base and a short 

 prolongation above the cells. Style and stigmas three, linear 

 curved stout, little longer than the stamens. Berry dark 

 blue as big as a pea, one to three or more seeded. 



Telom, sandy woods, near the river, abundant. 



This species, which is new to the Peninsula, has, in its large sense, 

 a wide distribution from the Himalayas to Java and China. 

 It varies a good deal in size of flowers, colour and proportion 

 of anther to filament. The Telom plants exactly resemble 

 Javanese plants collected by Hullett, except that in these the 

 anther is much shorter than the filament. The Javanese 

 plant is given by Miquel as D. jjarviflorum, Don. Syn., J). 

 Horsfieldil, Don., and its sepals are said to be puberulous, 

 which Hullett's and my specimens are not.
