 acute or even acuminate and usually trinerved leaves and cymose 

 or even umbellate flowers. In E. malifolius, the leaves are 

 pinninerved and the flowers are in racemes. The present Euhus is 

 also distinguishable from E, sepalanthiis Fogke by tri-nerved leaves 

 and umbellately contracted racemes. This is also near E. Sicinhœi 

 Hange, w]]icli differs from this plant, in having quite glabrous 

 leaves, and not prickly pedicels and calyx.
