AMERIMNON. ш 
SUBGENUS IL—AMERIMNON. 
Flowers with the standard-blade reflexed or refracted; wings and keel-petals both 
hastate; style long, slender, usually subulate, rarely cylindric. 
This is а very natural subgenus, the characters to be obtained from the petals being more uniform 
throughout its limits than they are in Sissoa. The reason for this is perhaps partly that there is 
much less variation in size of flowers here than in Sissoa, In character of pod there is much the 
same variety; all the types that prevail in Sissca recur in -Amerimnon, though the nummular 
type is in this eubgenus absent from Asia. 
§ 3. ENDESPERMUM.—Standard rather distinctly refracted at junction of rather 
small blade and narrow claw; stamens normally monadelphous; stylo subulate. 
This section is, as regards the majority of its species, very distinct. A few, however, but for their 
monadelphous stamens, are very like climbing Jallergarias, and a few, but for their refracted vexillum, 
are much like the Velutinae among the Miscolobia. 
«10. Rostratae.— Pods wide-liguiate, samarotd ; epicalycine bracteoles subulate ; leaflets 
large, few ; climbers or small trees. 
The epicalycine bracteoles, which are like those of the 4 Cultratae, mark this group as very distinct not 
only from the rest of the Endesperma but from all the other Asiatic Атегітпа.

This species is evidently very nearly related to the Bornean D. Havilandi, but differs in 
a glabrous ovary, larger main-bracteoles and smaller stipules ; leaves have not yet been seen. Mr. Е. £ 
Hullett, who collected this plant in 1885, in 1896 whether he had ever seen it 
again, has written (27th September 1896) :—
