NEW AND RARE MALAYAN PLANTS. 65 



with a second intramarginal between it and the leaf-edge as 

 in E. densiflora the base of the leaf is broader and more round- 

 ed and the leaves are generally more ovate. As in E. densi- 

 flora the midrib is deeply sunk above, prominent beneath, and 

 the whole surface of the leaf beneath is pustular. 



Eugenia pauper, n. sp. 



A small tree, branches rather slender, bark light reddish. 

 Leaves thinly coriaceous, punctate above, pustulate beneath, 

 elliptic, abruptly cuspidate, base cunea-te, nerves 10 to 12 pairs 

 depressed above, elevate beneath inarching to form an intra- 

 marginal- nerve .1 in. from the edge, midrib channelled above, 

 elevate beneath 5.5 to 6 in. long 2.5 in. wide, petiole .4 in. 

 long, slightly thickened, black. Cymes axillary solitary in 

 each axil .5 to .75 in long with 2 or 3 flowers on the ends of 

 the 2 or 3 branches. Bracts minute at the base of the flowers. 

 Calyx cup-shaped, truncate, suddenly narrowed to a slender 

 pseudo-stalk .1 in. long, pustular. Petals calyptrate. 



JoiroR, in Gunong Pulai and Gunong Pantai (Ridley 



121 75 and 1200). 



This is nearest to E. oblata, Duthie which it exactly 

 resembles in the inflorescence, but the venation and shape of 

 leaves is quite different. 



Eugenia cyrtophylloides, n. sp. 



A tree with pale reddish bark. Leaves stiffly coriaceous, 

 lanceolate, acute or cuspidate, base narrowed, decurrent on the 

 petiole, black-dotted beneath, nerves very numerous, fine, visible 

 above, very inconspicuous beneath; midrib strongly elevate, 

 3.5-1 in. long 1-1.5 in. wide, petiole .2 in. Panicle terminal 

 2 to 3 in. long, peduncle 1-2 in. long, branches 1 in. long 

 terete, thick branchlets, 3 terminal on the branches, ending 

 in 3 sessile flowers. Bracts caducous. Calyx .1 in. long 

 gradually narrowed to a broad base, the lower part cylindric; 

 lobes ovate, short. Corolla calyptrate. Stamens very short 

 rnd few. 



Pahaxg. Y\ ray's ('amp, Gunong Tahan (Ridley 16274). 



This belongs to the group of E. punctulata, with an urn- 

 shaped calyx and calyptrate corolla and few stamens. 



Eugenia KIcssii, n. sp. 



A tree. Branchlets terete, black. Leaves in distant pairs, 

 elliptic, acuminate, acute, base cuneate, thinly coriaceous, 

 nerves about 20 pairs, elevate beneath, secondary nerves nearly 

 as conspicuous, inarching .1 from the edge, reticulations wide 

 conspicuous beneath, all inconspicuous above 5.5 in. long 2.25 

 in.. 2.5 in. wide, petiole .2 in. long. Panicles 1-2 terminal 3 

 in. long or less, branches few, short with 1 to 3 terminal
