NEW AND BARE MALAYAN PLANTS. 17 



Malacca. Aver Panas (Goodenougb; Ridley 1797) 

 flowers; (Main gay 1455) fruit. 



Nearest to A. lance olaia, Hiern, but the leaves are thinner, 

 larger and less coriaceous with more distinct nerves, the flowers 

 are smaller and glabrous, the stamina! tube has rounded short 

 lobes. 



Aglaia rufibarbis, Eidl. 



I find that the plant described by me in the Journ. Koy. 

 As. Soc. Str. Branch vol. 54, p. 32, as Aglaia rufa, Miq. is not 

 that species but is a distinct and previously undescribed one. I 

 therefore give it the name of A. rufibarbis. 



Dysoxylon pulchrum, n. sp. 



A small tree, glabrous except the flowers. Leaf over a foot 

 long, rhachis stout. Leaflets more than 11, alternate, rather 

 distant, coriaceous, oblong, rather abruptly blunt acuminate, 

 base cuneate or broadly rounded, equilateral or very nearly so, 

 midrib stout, prominent beneath, nerves 11 pairs, slender but 

 prominent beneath, 8 — 9 in. long, 3 — 3.5 in. across, petiolules 

 .2 — .3 in. long, stout. Panicles large over a foot long, branches 

 8 — 12 in. long, stout, scurfy, branchlets scattered, 1 — 2 in. long 

 with short terminal cymes of 1 — 3 flowers. Pedicels .1 in. long. 

 Flowers nearly .2 in. pure white, buds truncate, oblong. Calyx 

 fiat, saucer-shaped with 1 or more irregular lobes. Petals 

 much longer, oblong obtuse, glabrous outside, puberulous in- 

 side. Stamen-tube cylindric, thick pubescent outside, villous 

 inside, mouth nearly entire, anthers included 10. Disc cylin- 

 dric, hairy, longer than ovary. Style very stout, glabrous above. 

 Stigma large capitate. 



Pexaxg. At the top of the hill, 1800 feet alt. (Ridley) 

 in thick forest. 



A beautiful plant which was a mass of white bloom when 

 I collected it in March 1915. 



The leaves closely resemble those of D. thyrsoideum, Griff. 

 but the panicles and flowers are far larger, the petals broader, 

 the stamen-tube quite hairy inside and out. 



Walstira tenuifolia, n. sp. 



A tree glabrous except the flowers. Leaves 5 in. long; 

 leaflets 5, thin membranous, glaucous beneath, elliptic acuminate 

 acute, base rounded or shortly cuneate, nerves about 8 pairs, 

 elevate beneath, reticulations fine, conspicuous when dry, 2 — 4 

 in. long, 1 — 1.5 in. wide, 1.5 in. apart on the rhachis ; petiolules 

 .2 in. long. Panicles long, 12 — 14 in., lax with distant branches 

 1.5 in. long, glabrous below, scurfy above. Flowers few .2 in. 

 long, pedicels .05 long. Calyx minutely puberulous, short;
