According to the short-pointed apex of its flower-buds this species shows affinity 

 to T. jasminoides Lemaire, but it seems to be most closely related to T. lucidum 

 Kanitz, differing in the characters given in the key on p. 336. There are shght 

 differences between some of the specimens mentioned above in the size of the 

 flowers, the length of the lobes, and the shape of the sepals and of the flower-buds. 

 The leaves are glabrous, but in Henry's No. 10651 there are a few hairs on the 

 midrib of the under surface.
