COCHLOSPERMACEAE. 311 



Vernacular name: »Njoe fodoe". 



This species as well in its habit as in the shape of its seeds com- 

 pletely resembles a Cochlospermum and is probably most closely related 

 to Cochlospermum paviaefolium Planch. But the flowers entirely agree 

 with those of the genus Amoreuxia, as well in the ovary being perfectly 

 trilocular, as by the fact that the stamens are here also considerably 

 longer at one side of the flower than at the other. Without doubt we 

 have here an intermediate form between the genera Amoreuxia and 

 Cochlospermum.
