62 Callicarpa. 



brown farinose texture on branchlets, petioles and cymes, 

 glabrescent; leaves oblong or oblong-ovate, with subtrun- 

 cate or subcuneate base, and a rather long, somewhat 

 abruptly acuminate apex; margins entire; 8.5 — 13.5 cM. 

 by 4—51/3 cM.; petioles 2—2.5 cM.; apex 1.5 cM.; 

 lamina chartaceous, upper side glabrous, or, when young, 

 with some stellate hairs; with sparse glands, and stellate- 

 pubescent midrib ; lower side with dense masses of yellow 

 glands, determining the colour of this side of the leaf; 

 moreover with some stellate hairs and some scales; 

 cymes large, 10— 16(— 20) cM. long, 7.5 — 10(— 12) cM. 

 wide, peduncles stout, 6—8 cM. long; calyx 4-ribbed, 

 4-toothed, glandular-dotted, sparsely, the ribs densely 

 stellate-hairy with intermixed simple hairs, 0.15 — 0.2 cM. 

 long; coro//a-tube glabrous on lower part, upper one with 

 the lobes, glandular-dotted and with 4 narrow lines of 

 dense, simple hairs; tube 0.35 — 0.4, lobes 0.1 cM.; stamens 

 exserted, filaments 0.8 cM., anthers glandular on both 

 sides; style 1 cM. with capitate stigma; upper half of 

 ovary glandular.

 Negros oriental; flow. April 1908. 



After Elmer's descriptioii the calyx should have 0.3, the 

 corolla 0.6 cM. The latter should be glabrous, moreover. This 

 is, as we think, either a mistake or an inaccuracy or incompleteness.

 stellate-hairy; 30 cM. by 15—20 cM.; petioles 1— 3Vs 

 cM., stout; cymes small, fasciculate, in the axils of branchlets
