Mueller derived the specific name, are, in our Queensland speci- 

 mens, neat holes in almost every axil of the secondary veins; in 

 the Acacia Creek specimens they are reduced to a few swellings 

 with a minute aperture. The fruits attain fully 1 inch in 

 diameter, and hang down in large bunches; the seeds are blackish- 

 brown, and nearly covered by the orange-coloured aril 1 us. 



The following description has been sent to us by Prof. L.
