A Bornean species, represented in Herb. Kew. by Beccari's 760 and Haviland's 

 3420, is allied to this, but its calyx has long teeth and much woolly hair. It is 

 evidently undescribed and might be named R. Beccarii. 



9. Randia Scortechinii, King & Gamble n. sp. An armed tree 

 20 to 60 feet high ; young branches usually thicker than a goose-quill, 

 glabrous, the bark pale when dry. Leaves of the pairs not very un- 

 equal, membranous, obovate-elliptic to oblanceolate-elliptic, obtuse or 

 abruptly acute or minutely cuspidate, much narrowed from above the 

 middle into the glabrous petiole ; both surfaces brown when dry, rarely 

 tinged with green and both glabrous except for a few scattered hairs on 

 the nerves on the lower ; main-nerves 14 to 18 pairs, little-curved, spread- 

 ing, prominent on the lower surface, rather faint as the upper, veins on 

 the lower prominent, transverse, wavy ; length of the larger leaf of the 

 pair 8 to 16 in. ; breadth 4 to 6 in. ; length of the smaller leaf 5 to 8 in. ; 

 breadth 3 or 4 in. ; petioles *75 to 1*5 in. ; stipules ovate, connate by their 

 bases. Cymes pedunculate, leaf-opposed (from the fall of the subtending 

 leaf), many-flowered, much-branched, spreading, 2 to 2*5 in. in diam., 

 everywhere puberulous ; bracteoles numerous, broadly triangular, per- 

 sistent ; peduncles *75 to 1 in. long. Flowers about 1 in. long, puberu- 

 lous everywhere. Calyx tubular, the mouth truncate but usually with 5 

 small teeth. Corolla cylindric, '75 in. long, with 5 short lobes. Anthers 

 linear, nearly half as long as the corolla, dorsifixed and inserted near its 

 base. Ovary two-celled, each cell multi-ovulate. Style short, stigma 

 clavate, sulcate. Fruit sub-globular, somewhat compressed, densely 

 puberulous, about 1 in. in diam., crowned by the short calyx-tube.

10. Randia perakensis, King & Gamble n. sp. A small armed 

 glabrous tree 12 to 18 feet high ; young branches thinner than a 

 quill, pale cinereous, glabrous, often armed with stout flower-bearing 

 spines 1 to 1*25 in. long. Leaves thinly coriaceous, narrowly elliptic, 

 tapering to each end, the apex bluntly acuminate j both surfaces
