 in Cand. 2«s, Prodi*., VIII. p. 233; Hiern, in Transact. Cambr. Philos. Soc. 

 XII, i, p. 216 (1873) in part.; D. undulata var. macrophylla C. B. Clarke, in 

 Hook, f., Fl. Brit. Ind. 111, p. 568. 



This is the plant issued by Wallich as n. 4141 of his List, also under the 

 naine of «Diospyros undulata Blume», which it is not, and therefore a new 

 name had to be found for it. This was done by A. de Candolle, who reduced 

 it to a variety of D. undulata, wilh the type-specimen of which in Wallich's 

 herbarium it dœs not agrée. He was followed by Messrs. Hiern, Kurz, and 

 Clarke, successively. It is now proposed to restore the plant to spécifie rank, as 

 first indicated by Wallich. The true D. undulata Wall, is a Burmese species. It 

 is found also in the Andaman Islands, but it has not yet been noted in the 

 Malay Archipelago.
