depressed like the midrib on the upper surface when dry and prominent 

 on the lower; length 3 to 6*5 in. ; breadth 1*5 to 3 iu. ; petiole '25 to *35 

 in. Stipules lanceolate with long filiformly acuminate apices, rusty- 

 pubescent, *5 in. long. Cymes in condensed sub-globular panicles 1*5 to 

 3 in. in diam. ; the branches short, covered like the calyces externally 

 with long pale soft hairs and bearing many long filiform pubescent 

 bracteoles. Flowers *7 in. long (excluding the style) on slender short 

 pedicels. Calyx flask-shaped, '15 in. long, the mouth with 5 long linear, 

 recurved stiffly pubescent lobes. Corolla with cylindic pubescent tube 

 more than twice as long as the blunt oblong lobes of the limb. Ovary 

 2-celled, each cell with several triangular ovules, disk thick cushion like. 

 Fruit the size of a large pea, glabrous, the calyx-scar small. Seeds 

 several, angled. Webera Maingay i, Hook. fil. Fl. Br. Ind. III. 103.

Resembling Pavetta naucleifiora, Wall, in externals, and varying somewhat as 

 to the amount of the pubescence. Griffith No. 3082 ( K.D. ) seems to be a form of 

 this with the upper surfaces of the leaves almost glabrous and the lower with minute 

 scanty pubescence. 



4. Stylocoryna costata, Miq. Fl. Ind. Bat. Suppl. 218. A tree ; 

 young branches as thick as a goose-quill, bluntly 4-angled, rusty- 

 pubescent. Leaves thickly membranous, obovate, the apex broad, obtuse, 

 or with an abrupt small apiculus, the base much narrowed; upper 

 surface dark-brown and shining when dry, glabrous ; the lower paler, dull, 

 glabrous except for tufts of coarse rusty hair in the axils of the 10 to 

 12 bold spreading slightly curved main- nerves ; length 6 to 8 in.; 

 breadth 3*5 to 4*5 in. ; petiole *6 to *8 in. ; stipules of the stem-leaves not 

 seen, those at the base of the cyme short, broad, blunt. Cymes crowded 

 at the apices of the branches, each individual pedunculate, corymbose, 

 densely many-flowered, everywhere minutely and densely pubescent like 

 the flowers and their pedicels, 1 to 1*5 in. in diam., bracteoles minute. 

 Flowers '65 in. long ; the calyx about 15 in. long, campanulate, bluntly 

 5-lobed. Corolla-tube narrowly cylindric, twice as long as the blunt 

 oblong lobes of the limb. Fruit the size of a small pea, glabrous, many- 

 seeded. Webera costata, Hook. fil. in Fl. Br. Ind. III. 103.

Closely allied to 8. fragrans, but arboreous and with obovate leaves. 



5. Stylocoryna fragrans, Biume Bijdr. 982. A shrub or small tree ; 

 young branches 4-angled, sparsely and deciduously strigose, thinner than 

 a goose-quill. Leaves thinly coriaceous, elliptic (often narrowly so),
