•4 spathulate branches. Stamens 5, glabrous ; anthers large, oblong. — A very distinct 

 species ; but possibly not an indigenous plant of Ceylon.

 ■glabrous feather-nerved, male corymbs large terminal lax nearly g-labrous.

Branchleis terete, glabrous, curved ; innovations folvqus-tomentose. Leaves 3J 

 by 1§ in., or the uppermost narrow-lanceolate, acuminate to an obtuse apex, cuneate 

 at the base, subentire, texture thin, secondary nerves finely reticulate; petiole J in. 

 Calyx at flower-time \ in., funnel-shaped, nearly glabrous. CoroUorlobes 5, | in., 

 -elliptic. — Appears closely allied to C. oblongifoUa. A male plant collected at 

 Malacca by Maingay (Kew Distrib. n. 1162) is perhaps the same, but has the primary 

 nerves of the leaves more numerous.

This closely resembles C. grandis. Wall, in its area of distribution, inflorescence, 

 4-merous flowers, and berries : differing only in the adult leaves being densely- 

 «tellately villous beneath. Kurz says " ovary with » sessile stigma," whence, it is 

 presumed, he had only male flowers.

A tree, attaining 30 feet. Leaves 4 in., sometimes ovate from a rounded base, 

 sometimes cuneate-oblong from a narrow base, entire crenate or lobed, densely 

 .tomentose beneath at least till nearly mature, at length scabrous above often with 

 white dots; petiole 1 in. Corymb's dense, tomentose, and woolly. Calyx J in., 

 tubular-clavate, prominently ribbed upwards, or, in other examples, much smaller, 

 scarcely clavate, hardly ribbed. CoroUor-lobes ^ in., obovate, or smaller elliptic. Calyx

 elongate campanulate, strongly ribbed.
