Conspectus of species. 



X Peduncles usually very short and stout, usually not longer than the petioles. 

 Peduncles short and straight (rarely long in Wall. Cat. 1455 fr. Nepal), usually lenticellato, 



rather strong, the nerves beneath prominent, the reticulation distinct, leaves glahrous 



or slightly pubescent beneath, ... ... ... ...Sch. WalUchlL 



Peduncles 1 in. long, lenticellate ; leaves pubescent beneath ; the nerves and net-venation 



prominent and distinct, ... ... ^ ... ... ...Sch. mollis. 



Peduncles thick, lenticellate ; leaves very coriaceous, glossy above, creuate, on both sides 



green, the net-venation indistinct, immersed, ... ...Sch. monticola. 



Peduncles short and straight, smooth ; flowers larger than in Sch. crenata ; leaves 



glaucescent beneath, often entire, the lateral nerves prominent, the net-venation 

 obsolete, ... ... ... ... ... .. Sch. Noronhce. 



X X Peduncles elongate, and often slender, always much longer than the 

 petioles, smooth. 

 Peduncles slender, usually more or less curved; leaves glavicous beneath, usually crenate- 



serrate, the nerves and net-venation beneath distinct, ... .. Sch. ohlcda. 



Peduncles strong, but still slender, 1— 1^^ in. long ; leaves very coriaceous, on both sides

1. Sen. Walliciiii, Chois. (in ZoU. Cat. 144 ?). Gordonia WalUchii, 

 DC. Prod. I. 528 ; Gordonia integrifolia, Roxb. PL Ind. 11. 572). 



Hab. Cliittagong ; Ava, Khakjen-hills, Ponsee (J. Anderson). Fl. 

 March. 



■ 2. Sch. mollis, Dyer inHf. Ind. Fl. I. 283. 



Hab. Ava, Taong-dong (Wall. Cat. 11<58) ; T)jev gives Tavoy as 

 a habitat, but this is an error. I fear that it is hardly more than a pubescent 

 variety of the preceding. 



3. Sch. monticola, Kurz MS. 



Hab. Martaban, on the highest crests af the Nattoung mountains, in 

 the stunted hill forests, at 6000 to 7200 ft. elevation. Fr. March. 



May possibly be a hill-form of Sch. NoronlKs, but looks very different 

 even structurally. The leaves much resemble those of Fijgeum lucidum. 



4. Sch. NoEONHiE, Rwdt. in Bl. Bydr. 120 ; Korth. Verb. 144. t. 

 20. f. 21—27; Miq. Fl. Ind. Bat. 1/2. 402. {Gordonia integrifolia, Eoxb. 

 Fl. Ind. II. 572 ; Gordonia foorihunda, Yf all. Cat. 1457, B only.) 



Hab. Frequent in the drier liill-forests of the Martaban- hills at 1500 

 to 4000 ft. elevation, entering also the hill Eng-forests ; Tenasserim (Helf. 

 763). Fl. Febr. March ; Fr. March, Apr.
