The late Father Scortechini's field notes contain the following 

 account of the flower : " The petals of this are red inside in the middle, 

 but pale towards the margins ; the stamens are numerous, 2-seriate, 

 united in a ring by their enlarged bases, falling off together : staminodes 

 many, short, adpressed to the ovary. Ovary pubescent, scaly towards 

 the base. Fruiting-calyx reddish." The species comes near D. 

 i fitkii : but is distinguished from it by the characters which I have 

 ] •> d under that species. Flowers of D. Griffithii are, however, wanting 

 for comparison. 



10. Dipterocarpus kunstleri, King, n. sp. A tree 80 to 120 feet 

 high : young branches flattened, at first sparsely covered with minute 

 scurfy deciduous pubescence, ultimately glabrous, but always with 

 oblique tawny-tomentose annuli. Buds narrowly cylindric, hoary - 

 canescent. Leaves elliptic or sub-rotund-elliptic, very shortly acumi- 

 nate, the base rounded or sub-cuneate, the edges undulate or sub- 

 crenate, both surfaces glabrous : main nerves 16 to 18 pairs, oblique, 

 straight, prominent on the lower surface: length 7'5 to 11 in., breadth 

 4*5 to 7 in., petiole 1'5 to 2 in. Racemes 6 to 8 in. long, often bifid, 4- 

 to 6-flowered, glabrous. Flowers 2"5 to 3 in. long, glaucous. Calyx-tube 

 narrowly obconic, 5-winged, glaucous. Petals linear, obtuse, glaucous. 

 / it sub-globular, an inch or more long, with 5 wings about 25 in. 

 wide : accrescent calyx-lobes oblong, obtuse, slightly narrowed towards 

 the base, glabrous, reticulate, 3-nerved, 6 or 7 in. long and about 125 

 in. broad.

 Allied to I), grand iflorus ; but with larger leaves, smaller fruit 

 and different buds. Allied also to D. Griffithii but with smaller fruit 

 and different buds. This species has leaves like V. trinervis Bl. and 

 I). retusus BL, but differs from these in having winged fruit : it also 

 resembles D. Dyeri, Pierre, which, however, has longer leaves with 

 hairy petioles and more narrowly winged fruit. 



11. Dipterocarpus Griffithii, Miq. Ann. Mus. Lugd. Bat. I, 213. 

 A tree 100 to 125 feet high: young branches stout, sub-compressed, 

 minutely tawny-canescent ; the leaf buds ovoid, densely covered with
