On the Sea-Coast in all the provinces. Distrib. Tropics generally. 

 The anthers of this species are two-celled and dehisce by upward-opening 

 valves. Those of the genus Hernandia are also 2-celled, but dehisce by valves 

 which open laterally. In habit and form of leaves Gyrocarpus much resembles 

 Hernandia ; whereas it is quite an aberrant form amongst Combretacese, as is also 

 Illigera.
