﻿134 S. Kurz — Contrihutions towards a Kiwidedge [No. 2, 



Ind. Fl. I. 402 E. sp. Griff. Not. Diaot. 517. t. 592. f. 2). 



Hab. Frequent in the tropical forests of Martaban and Tenasserim ; 

 also Andamans ; and Chittagong (teste Mast.) Fl. Apr. May ; Fr. Aug. 



N. B. — E. cuneatus, Wight, is noted by Masters as growing in Chitta- 

 gong, Birma, and Tenasserim. I do not know the species. Possibly the 

 Burmese localities refer to J^. lacunosus, "Wall. 



17. E. STiPULARTS, Bl. Bydr. 121; Miq. Fl. Ind. Bat. 1/2 210; Hf. 

 Ind. Fl. I. 404. 



Hab. In tropical forests of Martaban and Tenasserim, up to 3000 

 feet elevation ; also llangoon District (Brandis). Fl. May. 



Doicbtful species. 



1. E. LEPTOSTAcnTA, Wall. Cat. 2672 ; Hf. Ind. Fl. I. 403. 

 Hab. Tenasserim (Helf. teste Mast.). 



Masters states that the species is very like JE. rohustios but that the 

 anthers are bearded, while in E. robustus itself he tells us that the anthers 

 are both bearded and beardless. 



2. E. LTJCiDUS, Mast. in. Hf. Ind. Fl. I. 403, non Boxb. 

 Hab. Chittagong (Griff, teste Mast.). 



Masters identifies his specimens with Roxburgh's plant, which the late 

 Dr. Anderson had already recognised as an Eujphorhiacea and which is 

 Cleidion Javanicmn, Bl. I doubt the correctness of the habitat given for 

 the reason that Griffith had never visited Chittagong. 



I have not seen E. ohlongus, Gsertn. from Moulmein.
