1. Crudia caudata Prain. A small tree with slender at length 

 glabreseent branches, and densely rusty-tomentose new shoots. Leaves 

 odd-pinnate, rachis 1*5-2 in. long, petiole articulate, the interpetiolar 

 stipules united by their inner margins at the base only, elsewhere free, 

 lanceolate, densely rusty-pubescent on their petiolar, glabrous on their 

 axillary aspect; leaflets 5-7, petiolules *1 in long, densely rusty-tomen- 

 tose as is the rachis, which is prolonged beyond the last leaflet into a 

 subulate process ; alternate, oblanceolate, base rounded in lower, deltoid 

 in upper leaflets, apex prolonged into a '75 in. long, narrow-caudate tip, 

 25-4 in. long, 1 in. across, rigidly coriaceous, dark-green glabrous and 

 shining above, dull and densely rusty-pubescent on the nerves beneath, 

 lateral nerves 6-7 pairs slightly ascending, looped within the margin, 

 secondary venalion prominent beneath, all nerves obscure above. Floivers 

 in narrow racemes at the bases of new leafy shoots, with round densely 

 rusty-tome ntose rachis, pedicels rather stout, under "25 in. long, densely 

 rusty with a subulate bracteole close under calyx ; buds oblong 2 in. 

 long. Calyx-tahe very short, lobes 4, imbricate, reflexed in flower, 

 densely rusty outside, quite glabrous within. Stamens not seen. Ovary 

 stipitate, densely rusty-velvety, 1-ovuled, stalk glabrous as long as 

 calyx-tube. Pod (young) linear-oblong, obliquely rounded at base,
