Shortly and rather abruptly acuminate, the base rounded or somewhat cuneate and 
slightly oblique; both surfaces glabrescent or glabrous, minutely reticulate, the reti- 
culations on the lower surface tesselate, main-nerves 9—12, rarely 14 pairs, spreading, 
curving upwards at the tips; length 8—16 m., breadth 5—8 cm., petiole 2 em. 
long often with 2 sessile oblong glands at the side near the apex ; panicles lateral and 
terminal, with numerous spike-like, rusty-puberulous, ultimately glabrous branches 
shorter than the leaves when in flower, longer when in fruit; flowers 4 mm. in diam. 
at ће mouth, each subtended by а linear puberulous bracteole as long аз itself; 
ealyz-tube narrow, cylindric, thickened and pubescent towards the base, the upper 
half and the raouth glabrous outside; the mouth cupular with inconspicuous, 
broad, shallow teeth, woolly inside; stamens exserted, glabrous; fruit oblong, tapering 
a little to each end, slightly compressed on one side, obscurely 5-ridged, quite glab- 
rous, 1:2--2 em, long, '75—[ cm. in diam.; pericarp crustaceous, hard, thick.

The nearest ally of this species is probably 7. citrina Roxb. ; itis named in slight 
recognition of the great assistance for many years afforded to the Calcutta Garden by 
Mr. E. H. Man, c.r.g., of the Andamans Commission.

Natural order АтаПасеге, 
A small tree, 10—15 feet high; branches stout, rugulose, deciduously pubescent ; 
leaves large, digitate, the common petiole terete, glabrous, 9:5--6 dm. long ; leaflets 7—11, 
coriaceous, oblong ог elliptic-oblong, occasionally somewhat broader in the upper 
than in the lower half, shortly and abruptly acuminate, slightly narrowed to the 
rounded base, both surfaces glabrous, not reticulate, the midrib prominent; main-nerves 
5—8 pairs, distant, slightly curved and ascending, prominent on the lower surface 
when dry, obsolete on the upper; length 1—3 dm., width 4—8 .دہ‎ petiolules 8—9 
cm. long, slender, glabrous; panicles 2—3 dm. long, terminal, several together, 
Jong and narrow, with short, horizontal, slender branches from 1-25-—2:5 em. long, 
bearing terminal, 8—12-fld. umbels of small, 6-merous, subglobular flowers 29:5 mm. 
in diam. ; Jruit elliptic, 6-ridged, 6-celled, crowned by the 6 short distinct styles, 
glabrous, the pedicels 6—7*5 mm. long. 
Maravaw PENINSULA : Singapore; Ridley ’ Wray! Kunstier! Johore; King and Hulleti! 
A species much resembling H. divaricatum Miq., but with leaflets that have fewer 
nerves and show no retieulations, with much longer pavicles and a narrower fruit. It is 
also allied to И. longifolium Seem,, but the leaves of that species have many more main- 
nerves and the panicles are densely clothed with broad scale-like hairs and have longer 
lateral branchiets.
