Terminalia Moluccana, Lam. Diet. 1, p. 349 ? Blume, Bijdr. p. 643 ; DC. Prodr. 3, 

 p. 11 j Presl, Rel. Hsenk. 2, p. 21. 



Hab. Ovolau and Oneata, Feejee Islands. (In fruit.) 



This has entirely glabrous and short-petioled, roundish-obovate 

 leaves, and very turgid fruit; which in one specimen is obtusely 

 angled, in the other, ovoid-globose and not at all angled. 



3. Terminalia glabrata, Forst. ? 



Terminalia glabrata, Forst. Prodr. Fl. Ins. Austr. p. 74, & Ms. descr. in Guill. 

 Zeph. Tait. p. 61 ? 



Hab. Feejee Islands. (Without fruit.) 



Perhaps not distinct from the preceding. Forster's characters of 

 the drupe may have been taken from the immature fruit. 



From " a small island in the Sooloo Sea" is an imperfect fruiting 

 specimen of a species allied to the above, the immature drupes 

 oblong-ovoid, terete, acute at both ends. 



4. Terminalia Richii, Sp. Nov. 



T. foliis lanceolato-ellipticis acummatis basi acutis eglandulosis glabratis; 

 spicis floribusque sericeo-tomentosis ; fructu valde immaturo elliptico 

 compresso. 



Hab. Samoan or Navigators' Islands : on the coast of Upolu. 



This, I presume, cannot be Forster's T. glabrata (the leaves of 

 which are said to be sometimes ovate-lanceolate, sometimes obovate) ; 

 since the common peduncle, rliachis, and ftoivers are silky-tomentose,
