96. DALBERGIA camBoprana Pierre ex Brenier in Bull. Econ. Ind. Chin, v. 75; 
v. 404 (1902). 
A fine tree, 120 feet high, stem 2:5—4 feet thick; wood red, hard, alternately 
banded with licht and dark shades; young branches blackish or dark-brown, lenticelled, 
Leaves 5--Т in. long; leaflets usually 5, occasionally 4, rarely- 3, subopposite, ovate, 
narrowed somewhat abruptly to a shortly widely acuminate obtuse and mucronate tip, 
base rounded, quite glabrous оп both surfaces, closely finely reticulated, rather 
dark-green above, paler beneath, the terminal often much exceeding the others, 3:5—4 
in. long, 2:5 in. wide, the others 2—2°5 in. long, 195—9 in. wide; rachis 1°75—2:5 
іп. long and petiolules 715 in. long, glabrous; stipules deciduous. Flowers in lax 
subterminal panicles 8—5 in, long, 1'5—3 in. wide; peduncles surrounded at the base 
by a few ovate, subcoriaceous bud-scales; branches of panicle few, short, glabrous as 
are the very short pedicels “06 in. long; bracts and bracteoles not seen; calyz campanu- 
late; teeth all obtuse, the two upper subconnate ; corolla and stamens not seen. Pod thinly 
coriaceous, subligulate, glabrous, long-stipitate, 2 in, long, ‘35 in. wide, 1—2-seeded, 
faintly reticulated opposite the seeds; sced rather narrowly ovate, compressed, ‘25 in. 
long, “15 in. wide, “05 in. thick; testa black,

This is an exceeding distinct species, but the material being incomplete its precise affinity cannot be 
positively stated. The facies of the specimens recalls D. ovata, though the leaflets are somewhat 
differently shaped and more resemble those of D. glomeriflora, a species of which so far only the flowers 
are known. ‘The pods of D. cambodiana are very different from those of the other species here referred 
to the Ovatae whereof the fruits are known, and are more like those of D. cochinchinensis and D. 
sissoides which are typical members of the group Lafifoliae, but the seeds differ very considerably. The 
Ovatae and the Latifoliae are, however, very closely related and might without much inconvenience be 
treated as constituting a single group; it is almost certain that D. cambodiana, when its flowers are 
known, will be found to belong to one or other of the groups; till the epicalycine bracteoles are seen it 
will not, however, be possible to say with certainty to which of the two it should be referred; the proba- 
bilities seem in favour of the Oratae. The seeds are of a shape unusual in the genus Dalbergia. | 
The Kmer vernacular name is given as Cra липу by Pierre; Breiner gives it as Tra Anung. Тһе 
wood of this tree was formerly reserved in Cambodia for the needs of the king; it was at one 
time abundant in the western provinces of Cambodia, but is now rather scarce.
