154. E. Kirtmiana F.v.M. 



I have not seen them quite in their earliest stage. Thin, petiolate, rachis almost 

 terete, equally green on both sides, nearly ovate, sometimes undulate, rounded at the 

 base, shortly acuminate, about 7 cm. long by 12 cm. broad, intramarginal vein fairly 

 distant from the edge, secondary veins conspicuous, particularly on the under side, 

 spreading to reticulate, the principal veins roughly at about 40 to 50 degrees to the 

 midrib. Fig. 5, Plate 123. 



219. E. IcBvopinea R. T. Baker. 

 I have not seen them in their perfectly juvenile stage. Rather thin, equally 

 green on both sides, petiole very short or absent, lanceolate, the leaf depicted about 

 10 cm. in length and 4 cm. in width, the intramarginal vein distinctly removed from the 

 edge, the secondary veins at an angle of about 35 to 45 degrees with the margin. 

 Fig. la, Plate 167. 



223. E. latifdia F.v.M. 



Very thin, translucent, by reflected light equally dullish green on both sides, 

 petiolate, margin undulate, broadly lanceolate, apex blunt (perhaps orbicular, but I 

 have not seen such a shape in the youngest stage), intramarginal vein close to the edge, 

 the secondary veins at an angle of about 50 to 60 degrees with the midrib. Fig. 6a, 

 Plate 168. 



38. E. leptophleba F.v.M. 



Thickish and coriaceous, somewhat shiny, equally green on both sides, shortly 

 petiolate. Elliptical or nearly oblong in shape, 16-8 cm. (7 inches) in length, and 10-8 

 cm. (4|- inches) in breadth, are common dimensions. The secondary veins prominent, 

 roughly parallel, and often nearly at right angles to the midrib. The intramarginal 

 vein at a considerable distance from the edge. Fig. la, Plate 201. 



332. E. leptophylla F.v.M. 



With reference to the description at p. 259, Part LVT, the young leaves are 

 glaucous, «but not always " very thin." Mr. C. A. Gardner describes them from Southern 

 Cross as : " Small, sessile, opposite, broadly ovate, and with the stems prominently 

 glandular-dotted, glaucous, the veins inconspicuous, pinnate, the intramarginal one 

 distant from the margin. Fig 2, Plate 229. 



58. E. leucoxylcm F.v.M. 



Of moderate thickness, glaucous, sessile, stem-clasping, nearly orbicular (with 

 a diameter of, say, 4 cm.). Intramarginal vein at a distance from the edge, secondary 

 venation spreading roughly at an angle of 40 to 50 degrees with the midrib, reticulate 

 towards the intramarginal vein. Fig. la, Plate 56.
