216 CAPTAIN BEDDOME’S ANAMALLAY PLANTS. 
DALBERGIA SISSOIDES, W. & A. Lower forests. This is the smaller black wood: the 
wood is much darker than D. latifolia (.Eetee marum), and is called Eroopootoo 
marum. 
DERRIS PANICULATA, Benth. Banks of rivers, at 3000 feet. 
DERRIS HEYNEANA, Benth. At the elevation of about 5000 feet. 
MEZONEURON CUCULLATUM, W. & A. The stem of this plant, when cut across, yields 
pure water, just as that of Xanthowylum tetraspermum does, 
PITHECOLOBIUM ANAMALAYANUM, n. sp. ; ramulis petiolis paniculisque fusco-pubescen- 
tibus, foliis 6-8-pollicaribus, pinnis 6-8-jugis, 3-44 poll. longis, foliolis oblongis 
faleatis superne fere glabris, subtus parce pubescentibus 3—4 lin. longis, 1-2 lin. 
latis, glandulis concavis 1-3 petiolo infra pinnis insertis, una inter utrumque jugum 
pinnarum exacte intermedia, capitulis sub-12-floris, calyce aureo-puberula, corolla 
calyce duplo longiore extus puberula, staminibus longe exsertis, ovario longe stipitato 
pubescente, legumine puberulo cochleato, seminibus 8-10. 
A middling-sized tree, common at 6000 feet. 
Nearly allied to P. subcoriaceum, 'Thw., but seemingly distinct in the smaller leaflets 
and more numerous pinnz. I have not seen a specimen of Mr. Thwaites's plant.
