8 NEW AND RARE MALAYAN PLANTS. 
short $ inch. Calyx tube ¢ inch long campanulate tessellate verru- 
cose, lobes 5 ovate or semicircular rounded. Petals and stamens 
wanting. 
Pahang: Kluang Terbang (Barnes 10869). 
Incomplete as the specimens are, this is so curious and distinct 
a species that I describe as much as I have of it. The small narrow 
one with a very long blunt point are not matched by any other 
species known to me, and the singular verrucose tessellate calyx tube 
more like that of a Pternandra is very remarkable. 
Hugenia johorensis, n. sp. 
Tree, branches slender 4 angled. Leavs in rather distant pairs 
elliptic acuminate obtuse base rounded, coriaceous smooth, nerves 
above inconspicuous, beneath prominent 8 pairs with secondary 
nerves nearly as prominent between, intramarginal vein a quarter 
of an inch from the margin with another close to the margin, midrib 
beneath prominent. Leaf dryane dark brown 4 to 5 inches long 2 
inches wide. Petiole stout i 1 inch long. Flowers in pairs on a 
short inch long, terminal rece 2 inches across. Calyx shortly 
campanulate rather abruptly narrowed at the base, lobes 4 ovate 
rounded apex obtuse. Petals coriaceous $ inch long ovate rounded. 
Stamens very numerous fine an inch long, anthers very small. 
Johore: Gunong Pulai (native collector). 
This species is alhed to H. pauciflora differing in its much 
larger flowers and distinctly petioled elliptic leaves. 
Hugema Rostadons, n. sp. 
Branches slender terete. Leaves lanceolate acuminate subacute 
narrowed at the base, thinly coriaceous, above dark when dry below 
grey, 4-6 inches long, 1 to 1} inch wide nerves 6-7 pairs depressed 
above elevated beneath meeting in arches $ inch from the margin 
reticulations few, petiole { inch long. Flowers few = to 5 or less 
in a terminal cyme. Bracts minute ‘linear persistent 35 inch. Pe- 
dicels $ inch long. Calyx funnel-shaped gradually narrowed into a 
pseudostalk, half an inch long, lobes four more than half as long 
as the calyx tube ovate. Flowers + inch across. Petals herbaceous 
with a thinner edge white orbicular nearly ¢ inch long. Stamens 
half an inch long with very small anthers. 
Tringanu at Bundi (Coll. Rostado). 
Perhaps nearest to H. plumbea, King. The leaves are in rather 
distant pairs, dark and smooth above, and light smooth grey be- 
neath. 
Hugema porphyrantha, n. sp. 
A tree with slender terete branches. Leaves lanceolate acu- 
minate subcoriaceous base rounded cordate 6 inches long 2 inches 
wide, nerves sunk above, prominent beneath 16 pairs subhorizontal 
meeting i in an inarching ‘intramar ginal vein inch from the margin, 
petiole “thick = ich long or less. Leaf when dry dark blackish
