38 XLVi. ANACASDiACBiE. (J. D. HoOker.) {Eoliganm. 



coriaceous, shining above, pale and reticulated beneath ; nerves 20-30 pairs, very pro- 

 minent beneath ; petiole § in., spurs 1 or 2 on each side |-4 in- Panicles terminal, $ 

 a foot long, much branched, clothed -vrith ferruginous tomentum, J shorter. Flovieri 

 clustered,' .J about A in. diam. Styles S. Drupe Ovoid, glabrous, | in. long, upper 

 ^ or ^ exSerted. — Kurz gives this as a native of Pegu, but the plants he sends to Kew 

 under this name are in part the true H. Icmgifolia of Eoxburgh, and in part H. albi- 

 cans. H. ■ Grahamii differs from H. langlfoUa in the leaf being more triangular at 

 the top, not rounded and suddenly acuminate. 



6. K. Beddomel, Hooh. f. ; leaves 10-22 in. cuneate-oblanceolate some- 

 times much, produced below acute or acuminate densely velvety beneath young 

 membranous and ciliate. 



"Westken Peninsula ; Anamallay hiUs, Beddome. 



An enormous tree, Beddome. Leaves -when old 10 in. long, coriaceous, densdy 

 velvety, rufous ; nerves 18-22 pairs, stout, ferruginous, those of young plants 2(5 in, 

 long, membranous, ciliate -with long hairs on the margin midrib and under surfaces ; 

 nerves slender 40-50 pairs, horizontal in the lower very elongated portion, more 

 arching above ; petiole short ; stipular spurs capillary, caducous. — A very fine species 

 of vrhich the leaves only are known. 



7. K. albicans, Hook. f. ; leaves 6-16 in. oManceolate-eimeate or oblong 

 coriaceous aomninate shining and reticulate above white beneath and glabrous 

 or very minutely pubescent in the midrib only laxly reticulate, panicle pubes- 

 cent as long as the leaf much branched, branches slender, (J flowers shortly pe- 

 dicelled \ in. diam., drupe broader than long oblique. H. Grahamii, Kurz in 

 Journ. As. Soc. Beng. 1872, ii. 205. 



Pegu, Maetaban, Kurz, McLelland, Scott. 



Brcmchlets as thick as the thumb. Leaves 2-4 in. broad, base not decurrent on 

 the petiole, obtuse; midrib stout faintly grooved; nerves 14-18 pairs all raised, 

 arched ; petiole 1-| in. Panicle of 3 peduncled, rachis curved, branches very 

 slender, spreading ; of $ also much branched and spreading. Flowers S only seen. 

 Sepals small. Petals obtuse, pubescent. Filaments very slender. Dislc pubescent. 

 Brv/pe pedicelled, | in. diam. -when dry, turgid, someivhat compressed, very oblique, 

 the exposed portion mjich smaller, convex, puberulous. — Apparently a very dis- 

 tinct species, of which a large-leaved specimen from Kurz is marked H. Grahamii, 

 Kurz {Semecarpiis, "Wight.) I find no trace of spurs on the petiole, but have seen 

 no very young leaves. Kurz describes this as beard-like. 



17. in;EIiANOCIZVI.A, Hook. f. 



Trees. Leaves simple, very coriaceous, exstipulate, quite entire. Faniclea 

 branched, axillary and terminal. Flowers small, imisexual. Oalyx-tube per- 

 sistent, enlarged in fruit and adnate to the very base of the drupe, cupular, 

 lobes 5, erect. Petals 5, inserted on the edge of the disk, very coriaceous, per- 

 sistent, erect or suberect, villous in front, valvate. Bisk lining the calyx-tube. 

 Stamens inserted on the edge of the disk, filaments stout,- sometimes coherent at 

 the base with the petals villous; anthers oblong. Ovary globose, 1-celled; 

 style short, stigmas 3 ; ovule 1, pendulous from near the top of the ceU. Drupe 

 globose, areolate at the base by the enlarged calyx, flesh full of black yamish; 

 stone thick, haid. Seed oblong, testa thin; cotyledons amygdaloid, radicle 

 superior. — Distrib. The following are the only known species. 



1. Id. tomentosa, Hooh. /. ; branchlets petiole panicle and midrib be- 

 neath velvety-tomentose, leaves oblong acuminate rounded or subcordate at the 

 base.
