Miers brings part of this species to his B. alba and in this case, as else-

Very nearly allied to the preceding, from which it differs in the few 

 characters above given. The unripe fruits a good deal resemble those of 

 Doxomma Gocliincliinense^ Miers (1. c. t. 16. f. 2), but this species has very 

 long slender petioles.
