140 ANNALS OF ROYAL BOTANIC GARDEN, CALCUTTA. 
Distinguished by its leaves opaque and whitish beneath and with faint sub-horzontel nerves. In 
fruit this resembles G. Penangiana; but it has a very different stigma. 
Prate 166. Garcinia opaca, King. 1, branch with male flowers; 2, female flower; 3, ripe freit: of natural 
size; 4, male flower dissected; 5, single stamen: enlarged.

Garcinta KuxsTLERI, King in Journ. As. Soc, Bengal, for 1890, pt. 2, p 165. 
A shrub, 6 to 8 (rarely 15) feet high; the young branches dark-coloured, not-angled. 
Leaves membranous, oblanceolate to narrowly ovate-lanceolate, shortly but sharply acu- 
minate, the Базе much narrowed; smooth on both surfaces, the lower rather pale; 
nerves indistinct, spreading, 9 to 13 pairs, some of the intermediate almost as distinct 
as the primary; length 3:5 to 5 in., breadth 1°15 to 1°8 in., petiole ‘35 to '6 in. Male 
flowers about '15 in. in diam., in small axillary or terminal fascicles of З to 6. Sepals 4, 
ovate-orbicular, membranous, concave. Petals 4, broadly ovate, blunt, fleshy, concave. 
Stamens about 15, forming a convex mass; the anthers transversely flattened, 4-celled, 
the connective broad; rudimentary pistil 0. Female flowers solitary; sepals 4, orbicular, 
membranous, veined. Petals 0.  Staminodes 4, with filaments half as long as the 
ovary, and flat square heads. Ovary thick, cylindric, vertically grooved; the stigma 
convex, with large prominent black-tipped conical papille, and with about 10 incon- 
spicuous lobes. Fruit orange-yellow, depressed, sub-globose, about 1°25 in. in diam., 
smooth, the sepals persistent at its base for some time. 
Perak, at low elevations, common: King’s Collector, Scortechini, Wray. 
This is allied to the Burmese G. Jinoceiroides, Т. Anders.; but has smaller flowers, fewer stamens 
and more acuminate leaves.

GARCINIA Wray, King in Journ. Ав. Soc. Bengal, for 1890, рі. 2, p. 152. 
A small spreading tree; young branches very slender, dirty yellow. Leaves thinly 
coriaceous, ovate or elliptie, the apex produced into a long sub-spathulate point, the base 
cuneate; upper surface shining, the lower dull, pale; nerves slender, sub-horizontal, 
‘05 in, apart, invisible on the upper and faint on the lower surface even when dry ; 
length 2 to 2:5 in., of which the apical tail is sometimes as much as “75 in., breadth °8 
to 1:2 in.; petiole “2 in. Male flowers "25 in. in diam., in pedunculate axillary fascicles 
of 2 or 3; buds globose, pedicels “15 in.; perianth reflexed; sepals 4, the outer less 
than half as large as the inner pair, all orbicular, sub-coriaceous and concave; petals 4, 
orbicular, blunt, with a thickened spot near the base, covering the stamens in bud: 
stamens numerous, оп both surfaces of 4 fleshy processes; anthers sessile, globular-oblong, 
the connective rather thick, 2-celled, dehiscence vertical; rudy. style cylindric; stigma 
sub-lobulate, convex. Female flowers axillary, solitary, or clustered like the males; 
sepals 4, orbicular, thin, concave, about the same size as the petals and neither sepals 
nor petals quite covering the stigma in bud: petals 4, orbicular, concave, with a coloured
