ese two new species of pka are readily distinguished from 
the only other known species of the genus (S. scabrid. da), byt the leaves 
being entire at the base, and the stamens united into a distinct column. 
I found at least some of the petals furnished with a few stiff hairs on 
the back near the apex, the hairs being as long as the petals themselves ; 
but in S. delagoensis 1 failed to find any trace of such hairs. When 
the genus was founded by Bentham the female plant was unknown, 
and even now there are no specimens with female flowers at t Kew, 
but a fruiting specimen of S. cambestaen shows that the peduncles bear 
three or four flowers on short pedicels. The drupes are rather large 
cels.
