 by Blume, Schultes, Kunth, and other authors ; see Hallier f ., in

ed. 2, 2 (1832) 155. 

 Terminalis angustifolia Rumph. Herb. Amb. 4: 81, t. 35. 

 Amboina, Amahoesoe, Robinson PI. Rumph. Amb. 506, August 28, 1913, 

 near the seashore, locally known as chamara. 



Terminalis angustifolia Rumph. was originally discussed by 

 Lamarck, Encycl. 2 (1786) 324, under Dracaena reflexa Lam., 

 as possibly representing that species. Lamarck's species, how- 

 ever, is quite different from Roxburgh's and is Pleomele reflexa 

 N. E. Br. Terminalis angustifolia Rumph. is the whole basis 

 of Dracaena angustifolia Roxb. as originally published, in the 

 Hortus Bengalensis (1814) 24, by citation of the Rumphian 

 figure. The description, later published by Roxburgh, based 

 on an Amboina specimen cultivated in the botanic garden at 

 Calcutta, unquestionably applies to the same species. Cordyline 

 rumphii Hook, is also referable here as a synonym, at least in 

 part.
