 lobi 0-2 x 0-12 cm. Anthene oblongse, 0-15 cm. long. Ovarium

Differs from G. nuxioides (Siphon anthus nuxioides S. Moore) in 



the small leaves obtuse or rounded at the base, the short inflores- 

 cences, much smaller calyx and corolla, the former pubescent, &c. 

 It is nearer still to the plant named by Baker (Fl. Trop. Afr. v. 

 p. 290) Premna macros! phon, but which is, I venture to think, a 

 Clerodendron ; this, however, has rusty stems, much larger leaves 

 with rusty petioles, and larger lobes to calyx and corolla among 

 other features.
