62. Aglaia ienuicaulis, Hiem. 



Tasan : Fruit yellowish brown ; 6979. Distrib. Malay 

 Peninsula. 



63. Amoora racemosa, sp. nov. 



Tree 30 ft. taU. Leaves 12 in. long, leaflets 7, elliptic 

 obovate, shortly blunt, acuminate, thinly coriaceous, 

 glabrous ; nerves 9 pairs, rather slender, elevate beneath, 

 7-5 in. long, 3*5 in. wide, petiolule -2 in. long, swollen at 

 base. Racemes 2-3 together, very slender up to a foot 

 long, glabrous with flowers • 15 in. apart, scattered. Pedi- 

 cels • 1 in. long. Flowers globose, white. Sepals 5, round 

 free, ciliate, pubescent on the edge. Corolla • 1 in. long ; 

 lobes imbricate 4, two outer ones coriaceous. Staminal 

 tube round, lobes rounded, anthers on the inner face below 

 the lobes 8, oblong. Ovary small, hairy ; style stout, rather 

 long. Stigma orbicular, flat. Tasan ; calyx green ; centre 

 white ; 7039. 



This species. approaches the Aphanamixis section in its 

 slender inflorescence of scattered flowers, but the flowers 

 are much smaller and pedicelled, the stamens only 8. 



CONNARACEAE. 



64. Rourea intermedia, sp. nov. 



Leaves 4 in. long, rachis slender, puberulous, leaflets 

 over 20, coriaceous pubescent beneath, above shining, 

 oblong, shortly blunt acuminate, base rounded ; nerves about 

 8 pairs, obscure, reticulations and nervules as conspicuous 

 on both sides, 1 — 1*5 in. long, -5 in. wide ; petiolule minute. 

 Flowers not seen. Fruit-spikes 3 in. long, pubescent. 

 Calyx in fruit • 12 in. long, lobes round. Carpels '5 in. long, 

 upper part recurved, blunt, glabrous. Seed ellipsoid quite 

 covered by aril. (Label missing). This species allied to 

 R. parallela has the leaflets narrowed to a blunt point. 

 They are very variable is size and shape, some being almost

65. Connarus paniculatus, Roxb. 



Nam Chut : Flowers white, stamens tipped yellow ; 6683. 

 Distrib. India to Tenasserim. 



66. Connarus semidecandrus. Jack. 



Tapli : Fruit green ; bush ; 6775. Distrib. India, Malay 

 Peninsula. 



67. Ellipanthus Helferi, Hook. fil. 



Tasan : 3 ft. high ; fruit yellow. This species was only 

 known from some flowering specimens collected in Tenas- 

 serim or Andamans (locality doubtful) by Heifer. The plant 

 sent by Mr. Kloss is in fruit. The foliage and pubescent 

 branches resemble Heifer's plant and I assume it to be the 

 same, though with a little doubt as I have no flowers of this 

 nor fruit of Heifer's plant. The fruit is in a stout raceme
