ovate, as long as the pistil. Disc cup shaped, ovary conic, 

 stigmas 2 subglobose bilobed. Young fruit with four linear 

 oblong pubescent wings, much longer than the ovary. 



Lankawi. Pulau Segai (Aniff. Feb. 1911). 



Perhaps nearest to P. ins ignis but the leaflets are 

 sessile, thin and glabrous, and the flowers quite different 

 in structure. The bracts 2 to each flower are ovate, acute, 

 pink and hairy.

 a fair sized tree; Puket, Flag Staff Hill (Curtis 2930). 



Endemic. The fruit has not been described. It is 

 oblique transversely elliptic an inch across when dry and 

 half as long. The swollen peduncle cup-shaped half as 

 long as the fruit. 

 S. glomerulata, Ridl. Perlis, Telor Jambu in fruit (15107).

 "Small jungle tree" Calyx pale green, corolla whitish 

 with pinkish stigma. The panicles are shorter and 

 broader than in King's description and the stamens are 

 longer, as long as the petals, but I suppose this is the 

 species intended. Distrib. Nicobars.
