The genus Barclay a has hitherto consisted of but one species, a native of Pegu and the 
Tenasserim provinces, where it was discovered by "Wallich, who has given an excellent 
detailed description of it in the Linnean Transactions (vol. xv. p. 4.41, t. xviii.), and which 
has further been figured in the 'Icones Plantarum,' t. 809-10. The present species is 
very much larger than the original one, and differs in its tomentose parts, very broad 
leaves, fewer stamens, longer, narrower sepals and outer petals, more oblong seeds, and 
other characters. I am indebted to the late lamented Mr. Motley for the excellent draw- 
ings and dissections given here, which, together with a detailed description of the plant, 
were the last botanical labours of that admirable observer and collector. Shortly after 
their receipt at Kew, the news of his murder, and that of all his family, by the Mahom- 
medan settlers in Southern Borneo, was received in England ; and I have therefore 
replaced the name of rotundifolia, which he had given to this species, by that of its ill- 
starred discoverer.
