A climber. Leaves 5 by 2i in., nerves 5-6 pair, usually puberulous above, 

 beneath most obscurely dotted and sometimes pubescent ; petiole J-2i in. Corymbs 

 3 in. diam.; bracts \ in., lanceolate; flowers shortly pedicelled or sessile. Calyx 

 \^ in., broadly cup-shaped ; upper lip in flower of 2 minute acute teeth, lower sub- 

 entire. Corolla \ in., throat hairy. Drupe J, in., diam., globose, 3-4-seeded.— An 

 authentic Javan example from Miquel of his lucidula has the corymbs stouter, the 

 calyx larger, more distinctly toothed, the corolla fully ^ in..

 4-5 in. diam.; lower bracts i in., linear-oblong; flowers sessile or shortly pedicelled. 

 Calyx -^f in., closely minutely grey -pubescent ; after flowering somewhat deeply. 

 2-lipped. Drupe not seen. — This may be F. eeramensis (Miq. Fl. Ind. Bat. ii. 893), 

 of which no authentic specimen is at Kew.

Subscandent ( Hooker). Leaves 7 by 4i in., base obtuse, shining, subcoriaceous, 

 young scarcely pubescent beneath, nerves 7 pair ; petiole \\ in., pubescent. Corymbs 

 6 in. diam., straggling, closely pubescent with simple hairs and minute scales ; bracts 

 \ in., linear. Calyx j'j-i'j in., pubescent; one lip distinctly 2-toothed, the other more 

 shortly 3-toothed or subentire. Corolla ^m., subequally 4-lobed, glabrous without, 

 throat somewhat hairy. Drupe not seen. — From the subcoriaceous, shining, much 

 acuminate large leaves and scandent habit, the true affinity of this may be near P. 

 eoriacea ; but the artificial sectional character taken from the calyx does not allow it 

 to stand there.
