LAURINE^E. 157 



Near Cinnamomum acuminatissimum HAY., but distinguishable from it by 

 the thinner leaves and a little larger flower. The buds of the shoots were, in this 

 season of the year, very small, and therefore, are not available for description. 

 Found standing solitary on the bank of a valley near Suisharyo.
