23,3 Merrill: Diagnoses of Hainan Plants, II 253 



Ng Chi Leng, McClure 9571, May 13, 1922, in forested ravines. 



A species clearly distinct from the few forms known from 

 China and contiguous regions, well characterized by its short 

 petioles and its leaves being rather conspicuously glandular 

 beneath.

Ng Chi Leng, McClure 9319, April 28, 1922, in forested ravines 

 near the cave, south slope of the mountain. 



A strongly marked species, readily recognizable by its indu- 

 mentum, and especially by its ovoid fruits being densely ciliate 

 with long pale hairs.
