MATERIALS FOR A FLORA OF FORMOSA. 273 



In C. philipp'mensis, the leaves are quite entire, more coriaceous, 

 less reticulate and much larger, while in the present plant 

 they are thinly coriaceous, serrate towards the apex, and acuminate 

 or almost caudate. Besides, the two are easily distinguishable 

 by the general appearance. Our plant is near C. australk Linn. 

 and C. tetrandra, Roxb., but differs from the former by the 

 quite glabrous fruit and from the latter by the leaves, which are 

 serrate only towards the apex.
