CELA8TRINEJE. 



48. Evonymus Javanicus, B 1., Bydr. 1146, I am unable to 

 distinguish from this E. Sumatranus, M i q., FL Ind. Bat. I 2,589, 

 and E. Bancanus, Miq., Suppl. FL Sumatr. 513. 



49. Hippocratea anyulata, Griff., Not. Dicot., 473, t. 581, f. 1, — 

 appears to be a new species of Evonymus which might be called 

 E. Griffithii. 



50. Notliocnestis Sumatr ana, Miq., Suppl. Fl. Sumatr. 531. et Ann. 

 Mus. Lugd. Bat. Ill, is the same as Gelastrus robustus, Eoxb., Fl. 

 Ind. I, 626, and is also identical with Kurrimia pulcherrima, Wall. 

 — As Roxburgh's name is the oldest, the tree will have to be 

 named K. robusta. 



Is it possible that K. panieulata, A r n., is the same as Pyrosper- 

 mum calophyllum, Miq.? The foliage of the latter resembles very 

 much that of K. Zeylanica. 



51. Lophopetalum, W ght. — This genus appears to have been 

 mixed up with true species of Evonymus, such as E. grandiflorus, 

 and its generic characters became on this account rather unin- 

 telligible. This also appears to be the cause that a new genus 

 Kohoona, T h w., was proposed, which Mr. Thwaites has correctly 

 placed in the Hippocrateacece. 



The genus might be divided into 2 natural groups, the one with 

 fimbriate or lamellate petals and large flowers (Zophopetalum), the 

 other with naked petals and small flowers (JToIcootia).

52. Zizyphus Horsfieldii, M i q., Fl. Ind. Bat., I, 643, is evidently 

 the same as Z. ylaber, Eoxb., Fl. Ind. Bat., I, 614. 



47. Zizyphus ornata, M i q., Fl. Ind. Bat., I, 642, is identical 

 with Z. calophylla, Wall, (in Ex b. Fl. Ind.).
