1. N. semiglaucum (referring to light colour on under side of leaf), F. v. M. in 

 Trans. Phil. 8oc. Vict. iii. 25 ; Fragm. iv. 158. Usually a small slender tree, bark 

 light-coloured, smooth. Leaflets 2 to 6, oblong-elliptical, or from almost obovate 

 to nearly lanceolate, obtuse or rarely almost acute or muoronate, 2 to over 4in. 

 long, entire, narrowed into a short petiolule, thin-coriaceous, glabrous and some- 

 what shining above, more or less glaucous underneath. Panicles either small and 

 axillary or terminal and much-branched, but shorter than the leaves, glabrous or 

 minutely pubescent. Pedicels short. Sepals orbicular, eiliate, otherwise glabrous, 

 the larger inner ones about 1 line diameter. Petals shorter, with two cuneate 

 hairy scales as long as the petals. Stamens exserted. Ovary glabrous, 3-lobed. 

 Capsule 4 to 5 lines diameter, glabrous, very shortly attenuated at the base, with 

 divaricate compressed lobes. Seeds smooth and shining, with a thin arillus. —

I agree with Baron Mueller in placing this species in Nephelium.

 minutely hoary-tomentose. Leaflets 2 to 6, from obovote to oblong-lanceolate, 

 obtuse 2^ to 4in. long, narrowed at the base, but scarcely petiolulate, quite entire
