lepidote scales on the under surface of the leaf. The staminal cup is broader than Ion 
sinuate rather than toothed at the broad orifice; the stamens are quite included, insertec 
half-way down in Wallich's and the Bornean specimens (not at the base as described 1>\ 
Roxburgh) ; the petals are quite free. An extremely similar Malacca species, from Grif- 
fith, has the stamens inserted towards the mouth of the cup. There are many undescribed 
species in India ; but without fruit, and very careful dissection of the flowers, it is impos- 
sible to distinguish them.

There are three other Bornean Milnea in the Herbarium, but all in too imperfect a 
state for satisfactory description.
