694 Lxiii. SAMTDACEJ5. (0. B. Clarke.) IGasearia. 



A shrub, or tree attaining 25 ft. ; branchlets tomentose pubescent or nearly gla- 

 brous. Leaves 4 by IJ in., tomentose beneath or pubescent or only slightly hairy 

 about the base of the midrib, rarely so closely serrate as in Wight Ic. t. 1849, often 

 nearly entire ; petiole variable from ^— | to 6 in. in Central India examples. Pedieeh 

 usually numerous, less than ^ in. ; buds usually hairy, sometimes nearly glabrous. 

 Staminal tube short, stamens 7-10 (sometimes 12 Benth.). Seeds in red pulp. — The 

 typical C. tomentosa of North-West India has softly villous oblong nearly entire leaves ; 

 the South Indian examples (var. elUptica) have the leaves more glabrous, more crenate- 

 serrate and more narrowed at base. With these the Malayan examples agree. As to 

 C. Camicda, Wall. Cat. 7192 stated by Wall, to be equivalent to C. ovata Eoxb. the 

 numerous examples of Wight and Wallich have the pedicels buds and leaves beneath 

 villous and if it is separable as a species it is certainly not C. graveolem. Will- 

 denow says his C. elliptica has glabrous leaves and Roxburgh says his C. glabra has 

 glabrous leaves; so that these synonyms as known only from description must be 

 excluded. But it is very probable that they relate to the nearly glabrous form C. 

 Dallachii (see Benth. Fl. Austral, iii. 309). 



11. C. XiObbiana, Twrcz. in Bull. Soc. Nat. Mosc. 1858, pt. i. p. 463 ; 



leaves oblong-lanceolate acuminate entire softly hairy beneath, flowers almost 

 sessile, fruit less than \ in. diam. nearly globose. . 



MotJi-MEiN and Singapoke, T. Lobb ; Maiacca, Griffith. 



Branchlets round, softly hairy. ieo»e« 2^3^by J-IJ in. ; petiole ^-i in. Buds 

 most minutely pubescent. Fruit subsessile. — Scarcely differs from C. tomentosa but 

 by the more acuminate leaves. 



12. C. grewisefolia, Vent. Choix. 48; leaves large oblong hairy 

 beneath entire or crenulate base rounded or cordate, pedicels pubescent, fruit

Malacca, Maingat/ No. 659, 661. — Distrib. Malaya to the Philippines. 



A small tree (Maingay), branchlets more or less pubescent. Leaves 7 by 2i in. ; 

 petiole 1 in. Pedicels often ^ in., jointed at the base, buds generally pubescent. — 

 Differs little from C. tomentosa but by the cordate hase of the leaves as Ventenat 

 mentions. Miquel says his C. subcuneata differs from the typical C gremtsfolia in 

 being less hairy ; but in Miquel's own communicated examples there is hardly any 

 difference even in this respect. 



13. C. wynadensis, Bedd. Ic. PI. Ind. Or. t. 160; leaves elliptic- 

 lanceolate acuminate denticulate-serrate pubescent beneath narrowed into the 

 petiole, pedicels pubescent. 



Wtnaad ; alt. 2000-3000 ft. ; Beddovie. 



A small tree (Beddome), branchlets aureo-villous. Leaves 4-6 by \\- 2 in. ; pe- 

 tiole ^-| in. Pedicels not very many together, | in. or less ; buds minutely pubescent. 

 Stigma 4-lobed (Beddome). — Differs considerably from C. tomentosa among other 

 things by the leaves being acuminated to a very sharp point. 



14. G. Kurzil, C. B. Clarke; leaves lanceolate or oblong-lanceolate 

 narrowed at the base with spreading yellow hairs beneath crenate or nearly 

 entire, pedicels pubescent very long, fruit ellipsoid (f in. ?). 0. glomerata var. 

 puberula, Kurz in Joum. As. Soc. 1877, pt. ii. 92 ; For. Fl. i. 630. 



Chittagong ; H. f. ^ T. — Distkib. Northern Burma.
