Ng Chi Leng and Ka La, McClure 93U, 9197 (type), April, 

 1922, in forested ravines along streams. 



A species belonging in the group with Grewia paniculata 

 Roxb., but differing from Roxburgh's species in its oblong entire 

 or nearly entire leaves which are only slightly stellate-furfura- 

 ceous and not softly tomentose on the lower surface ; its shorter 

 panicles; and its longer sepals. The flowers are arranged in 

 groups on the ultimate branchlets of the inflorescence and sub- 

 tended by an involucre of densely pubescent bracts which vary 

 from oblanceolate to obovate, when obovate being frequently 

 deeply 2-lobed, the lobes somewhat divaricate. The species is 

 dedicated to Chung Yuk Fan, one of the attaches of Mr. McClure's 

 second expedition to Hainan.
