4. ACTINODAPHNE MONTANA, Gamble in Kew Bull. 312 (1910). 
A tree reaching 15 to 20 m.in height and 30—45 cm. in diam. of 
stem; branchlets dark brown, glabrous, striate ; shoot-buds cylindro- 
conical, 1 cm. or more long, perulate, the scales ovate, rusty-villous, 
with recurved tips. Leaves chartaceous, in whorls of 4—5, the nodes 
thickened; lanceolate or oblanceolate, long acuminate at apex, 
acuminate at base; both surfaces glabrous, the upper brown when 
dry, paler near the nerves, the lower bluish-green beneath, grey- 
glaucous when dry; 15—25 cm. long, 4—8 cm. broad; midrib 
prominent, raised on both surfaces; main nerves 8—10 pairs, very 
oblique, at about 30° with the midrib, gently curving to join in 
serial loops near the margin; transverse nervules prominent, usually 
arched, enclosing the netted reticulation; petiole rather siender, 
1—3 cm. long, channelled. Flowers in umbellules in pubescent 
racemes about 2 cm. long from the internodes between the whorls, 
the flowers themselves not known. Young fruit (mature not known) 
enclosed in the cup-shaped enlarged perianth-tube, puberulous with- 
out, villous within, the cup as long as the rather slender enlarged 
pedicels. 
PERAK: in open forest on mountain tops near Larut at 900 
—1100 m. alt., King’s Collector 2129!, 2913!. 
This species comes very near to A. angustifolia, Nees, but differs in having 
the nerves of the leaves not raised and in a much longer cup to the fruiting 
perianth-tube. When the flowers and ripe fruit are obtained it may be 
possible to say if it is not a variety only. 
5. ACTINODAPHNE JOHORENSIS, Gamble in Kew Bull. 313 (1910). 
A tree?, branchlets terete, greyish-brown, glabrous, uppermost 
slightly rufous-villous; buds small, villous. Leaves coriaceous, in 
whorls of 3—5; narrowly lanceolate, obtuse at apex, long-cuneate 
at base; glabrous on both surfaces, the upper shining, olive- 
green when dry, the lower glaucous-grey; 12—16 cm. long, 3—5 cm. 
broad; midrib slender, raised on both surfaces; main nerves distant, 
6—7 pairs, oblique, raised on the upper surface, joining in loops near 
the margin; secondary nerves few; transverse nervules very faint 
on the upper surface; reticulation minutely areolate, almost invis- 
ible; petiole 2—3 cm. long, channelled. Flowers in apparently sessile
