196 Lxxv. EUBiACE^. (J. D. Hooker.) [Pcederia. 



nately whorled petioled broadly oblong upper lanceolate acuminate, cyme- 

 branclies whorled, calyx-limb truncate, corolla glabrous. DC. Prodi: iv. 471. 



Malacca, Maingay (Kew Distrib. 885). 



Very similar to P. faetida, except in the characters indicated, and the much nar- 

 rower panicles with short {\-\ in.) stouter branches. 



3. P. calycina, Eurz in Joum. As. Soc. 1873, ii. 74; For. Fl. ii. 76; 

 leaves opposite long-petioled cordate-ovate or -lanceolate acuminate hispidulous 

 especially beneath, calyx-lobes lanceolate subfoliaceous, fruit broadly ellipsoid 

 compressed, pyrenes vrith a very narrow black thickened margin. P. foetida. 

 Wall. Cat. 6247 E. 



Tenasseeim ; at Tavoy, 



branches glabrous, leaves 4-5 by lf-2 in., very membranous, deeply cordate 

 ■with the sinus open and lobes incurved; petiole 1-2 in., hispidulous. Flowers not 

 seen. Fruit J-i in., shining, about twice as long as the stellately spreading calyx- 

 lobes. — Wallich s specimens are the only ones I have seen. 



4. P. lanuginosa, Wall. PI. As. Par. ii. 52, t. 166 (not Wall. Cat. 

 7293) ; petioles and panicles scurfily tomentose, leaves opposite long-petioled 

 all broadly ovate-cordate acuminate scaberulous above vsrooUy beneath, panicle 

 vritbthe branches short stout, fruit large compressed ellipsoid with erect calyx- 

 teeth, pyrenes black vfith.a broad pale wing. P. macrocarpa, Wall. Cat. 7292 ; 

 G. Don Gen. Syst. iii. 661. 



Eangook' ; at Pegu, Wallich, Maetaban ; at Moulmein, Parish. 



Lea/ves '4-6 by 2^4^ in., rather coriaceous, dull greenish when dry above, buff 

 beneath, the upper not narrower ; petiole 2—4 in. Panicles elongate ; branches ^—^ 

 in., opposite ; bracts subulate or triangular-lanceolate. Corolla J in. long, pink, 

 woolly within. Fruit f in..long,jpale-brown, puberUlous, the very short obtuse teeth 

 erect and girding the base of the conical disk. 



6. P. Wallicliii, Jlook. f. ; .petioles and panicles finely pubescent, leaves 

 opposite petioled ovate-cordate the upper mucb narrower seabrid above woolly 

 beneath, panicles with slender branches, flowers subcapitate, fruit small broadly 

 ellipsoid compressed with broadly triangular reflexed calyx-teetb. P. lanu- 

 ginosa. Wall. Cat. 7293, inpaH (not of PI. As. Par.) ; Kurz For. Fl. ii. 76. 



Tenassbrim ; Atran river, near the hot wells, 'Wallich, Heifer. 



Leaves 5-6 by 2J-3 in., dull green above when dry, buff beneath, rigid, and 

 clothed with short rigid hairs, base deeply cordate with ineirrved lobes, upper not 

 half the breadth of the lower ; petiole stout, l-lj in. Panicles long, slender, branches 

 and flowers pubescent and with short spreading hairs ; flowers in-small heads about 

 J in, diam. Corolla ^ in. Fruit (young) broadly ellipsoid, nearly orbicular, ^ in. 

 diam'. — I suspest that Kurz's P. lanuginosa includes this and the true plant; he 

 describes the leaves as sometimes ovate-lanceolate, which is not the case in Wallich's 

 lamiginosa (macrocarpa of his Cat.), and states that it is common in mixed forests 

 from Burma to'Tenasserim. 



6. P. pllifera, Hook. f. ; branches petioles and panicles clothed with 

 long spreading hairs, leaves .opposite subbastately-lanceolate acuminate scaberu- 

 lous above woolly Tjeneath, calyxi-teeth triangular-tlanceolate, fruit orbicular 

 compressed, pyrenes black with a broad 'pale wing. Wall. Cat. 7293, in part. 



Tenasseeim ; Atran river, Wallich. 

 • Hai it of P. lanuginosa, but differing widely in the long spreading hairs that 

 clothe those parts which in that plant present a close short soft pubescence. Fruit 

 ^ in. diam., pale, shining, the broad short calyx-teeth sharply reflexed.
