Espirito Santo, 1891 (1249). 
The same as Lechler’s 2316 from Peru. Nearly Jenman’s 
Guiana no. 2146, but that has short thick petioles and thick 
sharply ribbed blades. 
DAVILLA PARVIFLORA Sp. n. 
Scabrous throughout, the branches rather stout, flexuous, terete, 
or obscurely angled above, brown, the internodes very unequal; 
petioles 5-10 mm. long, margined, dilated at the base; blades 
12 cm. long, 3-6 cm. broad, oval to oval-obovate, with base abruptly 
contracted into the petiole, apex rounded and very slightly ob- 
tusely pointed, and margin sinuate-serrate with mucronate teeth, 
especially toward the apex; thickish, rigid, midrib impressed 
above, the 13-16 pairs of primaries parallel, slightly curved, angle 
about 60?, obscure above, finely and sharply prominent under- 
neath, connected by fine secondaries, which are reticulate ; panicles 
terminal, the branches in the axils of the floral leaves mostly short- 
peduncled, about 4 cm. long, loosely flowered; bracts oblong, 
gray-hairy, about 1 mm. long; flowers on short stout angled pedi- 
cels; buds globose, 2.5 mm. in diameter; petal one, or a second 
small o one; filaments but ee thickened above, style very thick, 
one-half longer than the stam 
Between Guanai and Tipusni, Apri lune. 1892 (1377). 
DOLIOCARPUS FERRUGINEUS Sp. n. 
Coarse, the branches thick but weak, angled, below sparsely, 
above densely ferruginous-hirsute, the hairs divaricate or slightly 
retrorse, internodes mostly less than 3 cm. long; petioles very 
thick, 1-2 cm. long, hirsute like the upper parts of branches; 
blades 1-3 dm. long, 6-12 cm. broad, irregularly oval with sub- 
cuneate base, acute or slightly acuminate apex, and sinuately 
serrate margin, the teeth distant, coarse, mucronate; membrana- 
ceous and thin, above dark, nearly smooth except upon the sca- 
brous impressed midrib and 12-14 pairs of primaries, which are 
nearly straight, diverging at about 45?, underneath pale yellowish 
green, sparsely hirsute, densely so with retrorse hairs upon the 
midrib and sharply prominent primaries, which are connected by 
the numerous fine secondaries ; flowers in simple or slightly com- 
pound sessile axillary clusters, the pedicels 3-10 mm. long, 
slightly thickened at the apex, hirsute ; mature buds globose-obo- 
void, 4 or 5 mm. long; filaments only s slightly thickened above.
