166 DR. J. D. HOOKER ON THE FLORAS OF MALAYA 
Ramuli crass, digiti minoris, tomento e pilis septatis. Cirri et petioli crass, pennoe corvinae. Petioli 
6" longi, petiolulis 1" longis. Foliola 2 lateralia valde inaequilateralia, latere extimo subcordato ; inter- 
■ 
media oblonga v. oblongo-lanceolata ; omnia 5-8" longa, dentata, utrinque rufo-pilosa, Stipule V 
longae, sessiles, late cordatae, glabratae. Paniculce (v. spicae) rami pollicares, crassi. Flores sessiles, 
in lanam immersi. Calyx cupularis, 5-lobus. Petala brevia, glabra. Filament a brevia. Ovarium 
depressing stigmate conico. 
My specimen of this magnificent plant is, I regret to say, in a very imperfect state. 
The great size, stout habit, dense tomentum, large persistent stipules, and short woolly 
branches of the panicle well distinguish it from all others of this section with spicate 
flowers.

Arbor 20-pedalis {Lobb). Petioli graciles, f longi, ad £" infra folium articulati. Folia coriacea, 2-2|" longa, 
basi obtusa, apice subangustata, dein obtusa, subtus pallide glauca, reticulatim venosa. Panicula 
3-9" longa, erecta, £-1" lata, ramis confertis alternis ferrugineo-pubescentibus. Pedicelli graciles, 
1" longi, subfasciculati. Flores suberecti, ^ n longi. Sepala 5, lineari-oblonga, subacuta, glabra, basi 
pubescentia. Petala 5, lineari-spathulata (sicca purpurea), sepalis duplo longiora, versus mediam 
partem inter se connata. Stamina 10, alterna longiora, filamentis basi monadelphis, tubo basi annulo 
tenui cincto. Ovarium hirsutum, stylis 5 brevibus, stigmatibus subrecurvis, 5-loculare, loculis 
2-ovulatis, ovulis pendulis superpositis. Fructus edulis. 
The genus Connaropsis was proposed by Planchon in the Hookerian Herbarium on two 
Malacca plants of Griffith, of which one (0. monophylla, PI. Cuming, 2324) has to- 
mentose panicles and simple (unifoliolate) elliptic-ovate long-acuminate leaves, and the 
other (C Griffithii, PI.) has impari-pinnate leaves with one pair of leaflets. The C mono- 
phylla differs from C. glauca in the form of the leaves, and in the very long styles, which 
project beyond the stamens.
