Hab. Tenasserim (Helf. 1046). 



I have only fragments of the Wallichian plant, which so far agree. 



A. Roxburgh iana, as understood hy Mr. Hiern, is a heterogeneous 

 assemblage which, besides the above, includes also the Khasyan A. undulata, 

 Miq. Ann. Mus. Lugd. Bat. IV. 44 (= Milnea sp. 17. Hf. and Th., 

 referred by Hiern to A. edulis). 



Amoora, Roxb. 

 Conspectus of species. 



* Petals 3. Anthers 6—8. 



x Flowers sessile, spiked, the male spikes forming large panicles. 

 Leaflets shortly acuminate ; fertile spikes simple, many-flowered ; male flowers about 



4 lin. in diameter, the staminal tube entire at the apex, A. Roliituka. 



x x Flowers pedicelled, cymose or racemose-cymose and panicled. 

 Male panicles ample, as long to half as long as the leaves. 

 Leaflets shortly acuminate, thin coriaceous, the nerves prominent on both sides, the 



veins and net- venation distinct, A. spectabilis. 



Leaflets blunt, smaller, coriaceous, the nerves above hardly visible and impressed, the 

 veins and net- venation obsolete ; fertile spikes few-flowered ; flowers about 2 lin. 



in diameter, the staminal tube slightly 3-toothed, A. cucullata. 



O Panicles slender, shorter or as long as the petiole. 

 Leaflets green, conspicuously nerved and net- veined on both sides ; flowers long pedicel- 

 led ; panicle very lax, densely lepidote, A. lactescens. 



* * Petals 5. Stamens 10. 



Panicles shorter than the petiole, like the petiole densely lepidote ; leaves sparingly 

 lepidote beneath, A. dysoxyloides. 



1. A. Eohituca, WA. Prodr. I. 119 ; Bedd. M. Sylv. t. 132 ; Hf. 

 Ind. Fl. I. 559.— (Andersonia Rohitulca, Eoxh. Fl. Ind. II. 213 ; Griff. 

 Not. Dicot. 507. t. 589. f. 3). 



Hab. Frequent in the tropical forests of the eastern slopes of the 

 Pegu Yomah, and from Martaban down to Tenasserim, up to 3000 feet 

 elevation. — Fl. Apr. May. 



2. A. spectabilis, Miq. Ann. Mus. Lugd. Bat. IV. 37 ; Hf. Ind. Fl. 

 I. 561. 



Hab. Rangoon {teste Hiern). 



I have seen no Burmese specimens ; the original Wallichian tree came 

 from Assam (Gwalpara) and not from Nepal. 



3. A. cucullata, Roxb. Corom. PI. III. 54. t. 258 ; Hf. and Ind. Fl. 

 I. 560. {Andersonia cucullata, Roxb. Fl. Ind. III. 212).

 Toungoo (Hb. Kz. 1381). 



5. A. dysoxyloides, Kurz MS. 



Hab. Martaban, Yoonzeleen, at 900 feet elevation (Brandis).
