1. C. ferrea, Bl—An evergreen small tree, 20 to 35 ft. high, 
the branchlets tawny-puberous ; leaves oblong to elliptical, acute 
at the base, on a glabrous rather thick petiole 3-4 lin. long, shortly 
acuminate, entire, thin-coriaceous, 3-4 in. long, glossy above, 
glabrous and glaucous beneath ; flowers small, shortly pedicelled,

2. C. Griffithiana, Wight.—An evergreen small tree, the 
branchlets densely rusty velvety-tomentose ; leaves oblong-lanceo- 
late to oblong, on a thick densely rusty-tomentose petiole 3-2 
in. long, obtuse or acute at the base, shortly or almost caudate- 
acuminate, 4-8 in. long, coriaceous, rigid, entire, with the margins 
somewhat revolute, above shortly puberulous and opaque, turning 
glabrous and glossy, beneath more or less glaucous, puberulous, 
tusty-pubescent on the strong nerves and elegant net-veina-
