In Ox. sensitiva the seeds are elegantly transversely tubercled- 

 sulcate on the thickened blackish back, and less so on the convex 

 and paler facets. 



33. Connaropsis Griffithii, Planch, apnd Hf., in Linn. Soc, 

 Trans. XXIII, (1862), has to be changed into Connaropsis diversifolia ; 

 for Bourea diversifolia, M i q., Suppl. Fl. Sumatr. (1860) 528, is 

 undoubtedly the same plant. Prof. M i q u e 1 describes the ovary 

 as consisting of 5 carpels, but I think, he mistook the 5 furrows for 

 them. I have unfortunately no flowers to examine, and a 

 withered flower-rudiment did not show me exactly the parts, but 

 the arrangement of the pedicels and inflorescences, and the whole 

 structure of the leaves clearly shews that the species is a Connaropsis,

34. Luvunga Calophylla, n. ^.—Glabra ; folia larga, 3- 

 foliolata, petiolo terete 8— 9 poll, longo; foliola 10 — 12 poll, lon- 

 ga, 4 poll, lata, obovato-lanceolata, basi in petiolum brevissimum 

 attenuata, breve acuminata, integra, marginibus sub-revolu- 

 tis, chartacea, glaberrima, utrinque nitentia, costa subtus acute 

 prominente, nervis lateralibus conspicuis ; flores cymosi ; cymse 

 breves, glabra ; calyx truncato 5-dentatus, majusculus, glaber ; 

 petala, stamina &c. desunt ; baccse imniaturse oblongae v. ovato- 

 oblongse, styli basi coronatae, vesiculoso-papillosae. — Island Banca 

 near Sumatra, at Jebtis (Teysmannin Hb. Bog. 3223). Lima- 

 utan, inc. A very distinct species, with leaves much resembling those 

 of Zanthoxylon euneurum, M i q. 



Luvunga sarmentosa (Triphasia sarmentosa, B 1. ?) is identified by 

 Prof. Oliver with L. eleutherandra, but it differs from it consider- 

 ably by the hairy filaments. I am not at all sure whether Blume's 

 T. sarmentosa is really the same, as the present species, for B 1 u m e 

 describes the floral parts to be trimerous. 



35. Atalantia (Pararnignya) citrifolia (Limonia citrifolia, Eoxb., 

 Fl. Ind., II, 579). What Prof. Oliver has taken for Pararnignya 

 citrifolia, R xb., is a perfectly distinct plant from the Eoxburghian, 

 which has a very short style, perfectly unlike that of Oliver's 

 plant, and the flowers of very small size. 



I cannot detect any distinctive characters of generic value
