_ 11. Lorantuus ststipitatus, Stapf in Trans. Linn. Soc. Ser. 2 
TV. 221 (1894). A parasitic shrub; branchlets slender, brown, rough 
with many small circular whitish lenticels, uppermost and innovations 
rusty and scurfily pubescent. Leaves thinly subcoriaceous, sub- 
opposite; elliptic or suborbicular, obtuse or emarginate at apex, 
shortly cuneate at base; upper surface glabrous, lower glabrous when 
old, when young densely rufous-tomentose ; 3°5—5-5 cm. lon g, 2°5—5 
cm. broad; midrib slender, main nerves 3—4 pairs, irregular, meeting 
in arches near the margin; reticulation obscure; petiole slender, 
8—10 mm. long. lowers in an umbellate cyme in pairs or threes on 
a common slender peduncle 8—10 mm. long, single or fascicled in 
the axils of the leaves, rufous-tomentose as the whole inflorescence : 
pedicels slender, 7 mm. long; bract very small, ovate, embracing 
the calyx-tube. Calyx ovoid or nearly globose; limb very short, 
ciliolate. Corolla-tube in bud very slender, curved, clavate, 10—24 
mm. long, glabrous within, the tip ovoid, when open cleft into 4 
lobes, one of the clefts extending about to the middle of the tube. 
Stamens inserted near the top of the tube; filaments adnate to the 
tube below, free only for about 1 cm.; anthers oblong, 2--2°5 mm. 
long, obtuse, cells transversely septate. Ovary included in the calyx- 
tube; style very slender, 4-angled, stigma clavate. Fruit oblong, 
7mm. long, 4 mm. in diam., glabrous, prominently rugose, not 
stalked. 
PrrRak: Scortechini 421!, at Gunong Haram 647!.—Disrrip. 
Borneo (Fraser 183!; Kinabalu Mt. Haviland 1351). 
Scortechini 421 was identified by Sir George King with L. Scurrula, L. var. 
obtecta, but Dr. O. Stapf in his paper on the Flora of Kinabalu in Borneo, 
tightly pointed out that the fruit is quite different, being oblong and not clavate. 
He, like Sir G. King, makes Scortechiné 311 the same, but that specimen seems 
to me to differ very much and to belong to L. malaccensis,
