 45 by f in. ; septum spongy, J by J in. Seeds sub-4-seriate, IJ by J in., subrectan-

 differs from all the other species, and is marked by D. Don (in Herb. Wallich) as 

 Spathodea Wallichii, D. Don : the septum appears too spongy for Doliehandrone. 

 Seemann has merely noted that the seeds are biserial (i.e. in each cell) without making 

 any guess at the genus.
