 pedunculis semel rarius itei'umque divisis ; pedicellis brevibus ; floribus 

 parvis albo-viridescentibus, calyce 4-lobo lobis omnibus rotundatis 

 extei'ioribus interioribus 2-plo minoribus, corollce petalis 4 oblongis ob- 

 tusis planis prope basin 2-foveolatis ; staminibus 4 filamentis erectis in 

 disci angulis obtusis insertis, loculis antherarum basi divergentibus ; 

 ovario pyramidato-tetragono disco affixo stigmate minuto, 4-loculare ; 

 ovulis in loculis singulis pendulis anatropis, rapbi extrorsa ; capsula 

 1 — 4-sperrQa rotundataloculicidim debiscente, seminibus ohlongis pendulis, 

 aiillo laciniato in testa membranacea adbaerente e rapbi orto ornatis et 

 arillodio carnoso rubro obtectis ; evibryone intra albumen carnosum ortbo- 

 tropo, cotyledonibus oblongis foliaceis, radicula brevi. 



Arbuscula 4 — 12 metr. alta, foliis oppositis 9 — 16 cm. longis his 6 — 9 

 cm. latis, petiolis "75 cm., cymis 3 — 9-floris pedunculis 20 — 30 mm. longis, 

 pedicellis 4 rum. longis, sepalis exterioribus 1"5 mm. interioribus 3 mm.

Differs from G. zeylanictim by its rounded branches, thicker broader 

 leaves with margins entire, by its much smaller flowers with petals flat 

 and not reflexed at the margin, and by its rather shallower arillode. 

 The true arillus is identical in both and the margin of the arillode is 

 similarly lobed.
