A tree, the young shoots, branchlets, and inflorescence pubesce 
with debs ferruginous hairs. ranchlets frequently fla pps or 
somewhat 4-angled at the nodes. Leaves elliptical or elliptic-lanceolate, 
acuminate, or rarely almost obtuse, minutely reticulate on both surfaces, 
the midrib and lateral veins raised on the underside, shortly narrowed at 
the base into a petiole of 4-5 lines (8-10 mm.), 2-4 in. (5-1-10-2 cm.) long, 
j-1} in. (2-5-4-5 cm.) broad ; upper surface glabrous, on the under 
sacinee the midrib and main nerves in the lower part and sometimes 
the lower part of the lamina ferruginous-pubescent. Panicles in the 
upper axils, almost as long as the leaves, branches rather long and 
slender. Pedicels slender, attaining 5 lines in length ; bracts about } line 
(1-5 mm.) long, inserted near the middle and a slightly larger one a tittle 
below them. Perianth pubescent, turbinate, with a rather narrow tube, 
the lobes rather shorter than the tube and broadly ovate or orbicular 
and obtuse and about | line long. Stamens of the outer series reduced 
to a thick ring at the base of the perianth segments, very prominent 
and fleshy, its inner rim slightly mensie between the insertions of the 
three perfect stamens, which are glabrous and with anthers broader 
than long, shortly stipitate and protruding from the inner rim of the 
ring. Perianth-tube pubescent inside below the fleshy ring. Ovary 
ovoid, rounded or with a slight depression at the apex ; style very short 
and gland-like.

: The prominent ring inside the flower at the base of the perianth 
segments connects this species with £. glauca, R. Br., and E. hypotephra, 
F. v. M., but the new species is readily distinguished from them by 
the non-glaucous underside of its leaves, its long bracteate pedicels, and 
narrow-turbinate perianth tube.
