 14-2in., pilose or glabresoent, thickened at the apex. Macemea erect,, more than twice 

 the length of the petiole. Pedicels recurved, ultimately erect. Flower-huds lanceolate. 

 Flower lin. diam. Sepals lanceolate, rusty-pubescent. Petals oblong-cuneate,' deeply 

 laciniate, sometimes bifid, silky on the outside. Stamens very numerous (70), filaments 

 hairy or glabrous. OvCiry 2-celled, cells 8-ovuled. Z)j%^' 1|^2 in., oval, sniooth ; 

 stone 1-2-ceiled, coarsely tubercled furrowed. — To this species may possibly be re- 

 ferred E. grandifolivyS, Kurz,, Journ. As. Soo. Beng. 1872, pt. ii. p. 294, of which leaves 

 only exist in the Kew Herbariunl. The leaves are larger than ordinary. The Huts 

 of E. tuberculatus are worn by the Hindoos as & religious ornament.

 beneath ; petiole 1-14 i"- Racemes shorter than the leaves, 3-7 -flowered. Flower-buds 

 OToid, acute. Sepals lanceolate. Petals cuneate, lobed, pilose. Disk 10-lobed. Ovary. 

 pubescent, 2-oeIled. Drupe 14 iu., ovoid; stone tubercled, 1-oelled. — Beddome's 

 E. venustus, Fl. Sylvat. t. 174, so closely resembles E. Monocera, that it may perhaps 

 be considered as a variety of that species. It differs, however, especially in the ovate 

 leaves having shorter petioles, glabrous sepals, and very short anther-tails. 



25. E. punctatus, Wall. Gat. 2676; leaves small glabrous above 

 densely felted beneath oval acute entire, anther-tails long erect, drupe ovoid.
