and Kota Glanggi woods: Selangor: Ginting Sempah. 
This species has the flowers distinctly secund as has J. secun- 
diflora of Temengoh, but the whole texture of the plant is that of 
J. uber a fleshy succulent herb and quite glabrous. The leaves vary 
a good deal: those of the Johore and Selangor forests being ovate, 
the Pahang ones, lanceolate and often oblique. 
Filetia hirta, n. sp. 
An ascending herb, stem somewhat woody purple hairy above. 
Leayes ovate to ovate lanceolate slightly narrowed to the base, apex 
shortly acuminate obtuse 25 inches ‘long 1 inch wide, nerves 6 pairs, 
with multicellular hairs on both surfaces, but very densely on the 
midrib and neryes of the undersurface petiole + inch long, densely 
hairy. Raceme 3 inches long, base (1$ inch) nude, hairy. Bracts 
linear hairy $ inch Jong. Sepals linear acuminate hairy, free nearly 
to the base, half as long as the corolla. Corolla half an inch long, 
tube stout curved, limb white upper oblong obtuse, lip somewhat 
similar yellow, corolla sparingly pubescent all over, outside, lip 
glabrous except for a few hairs. Anthers linear hairy.  Pistil 
glabrous , style hairy. 
Selangor: Sempang Mines. 
This resembles considerably F. Scortechinii, Clarke which 
grows in the same spot but which is almost or completely glabrous 
all over. 
F.. Scortechini, Clarke of which only one very bad specimen of 
Scortechini is in the Singapore herbarium is described as a much 
branching under shrub. However like F. Rid/eyi it is more or less 
of a creeping plant throwing up a number of short stems, about 6 
inches tall. The flowers like those of all of our species are white 
with a TELy palate on the lip. The capsule (which has not been 
described is inch long narrow at the base dilated at the upper end 
and shortly “peaked. It contains + seeds in the upper end, flat 
papillose and somewhat obovate. It occurs on the Gunong Semang- 
kok, and at Gunong Berembun above Telom. 
What I take to be #. paniculata, Clarke also occurs on Gunong 
Semangkok (No, 12091).
