All these arta are in fruit, and all efforts to find the tree 
in flower have so far been unsuccessful. But as the capsule 
agrees closely with that of Tutcheria, which is reas peat 
able from all allied genera by its fruit alone, I hay 
longer to place it in that genus. I may here a what a in- 
advertently omitted in the generic description ae Bot. 1908, 
p. 324), that the genus is named after Mr. W. J. Tutcher, F.LS., 
an seve 
Botanical and Forestry Department of Hongkong, w who 
directed my stoning to its distinctive characters.
