Hab. In the nioister hill-forests of Martaban, east of Tounghoo, at 

 4000 to 5000 ft. elevation. 



Baker identifies the B. trichocaulon of Hasskarl's PL Jav. rar. 367 with 

 the above, but this he could only do by simply guessing, for the description 

 does not in the least agree and the dehiscent pods at once indicate its true 

 affinity. 



16. D. podocarpum, DC. Prod. II. 336 ; Hf. Ind. Fl. II. 165. 

 Hab. Ava Hills. 



N. B. If B. laxum, DC. 1. c. (Heclysarum laxwm, Spreng. Syst. 

 app. 292) is correctly referred to the above species (as to which I entertain 

 grave doubts), tbis name has precedence.

This, as already suggested by Bentbam, is hardly more than a diffuse 

 variety of B. Gangeticum, with broader leaves and spreadingly hirsute 

 branches.
