12. Ilex jiyrtillus, sjy. nov. 



A shrub, much branched, with small alternate, tliickly 

 coriaceous leaves, elliptic to obovate, obtuse or retuse 

 narrowed to the base, nerves quite invisible on both surfaces, 

 except the midrib, channelled above and elevate beneath, 

 1.5 cm. long, 1 cm. wide, petiole, 0.2 cm. long. Flowers 

 in terminal or axillary short panicles or racemes, much 

 shorter than the leaves, pubescent, pedicels 0.1 cm. long, 

 pubescent. Sepals, four ovate or half oi'bicular pubescent, 

 obtuse. Corolla 0.3 cm. across, petals, four ovate, glabrous 

 longer than the calyx, connate at the base. Stamens, three, 

 adnate to the top of the tube alternate with the lobes, 

 filaments thick, anthers subglobose, rather large. Ovary 

 short conic, stigma minute. 



This species is remarkable for the very thick small thickly 

 coriaceous obovate leaves and small flowers. It is nearest 

 to Ilex vacciniifolia, Stapf. of Kinabalu.

16. POLYOSMA ILICIFOLIA, BhlVie. 



A fine series of this confirms my opinion based on specimens 

 from the adjacent mountain, Menang Gasing, that P. parvi- 

 flora, King, is really a very young state of this species. 

 The flowers when fully developed are as large as those of 

 Javanese and Australian specimens. 



Distrib. — Perak and Selangor, from 4,000 feet upwards. Also 

 Java and Australia.
