pt. 2, p. 202. A glabrous tre6. Leaves coriaceous, oblong, shortly aca- 
minate, entire, rounded at the base, the lower sut^faces of the leaves 
feri ngineoua when dry : main ne^-ves 16 to 18 pairs, pl*ominent on the 
lower surface ; length 4 to 8 in,, breadth 2 5 to 3 in,, petiole '8 to 125 
in. Panicles axiilairy and terminal,- shorter than the leaves, pedurt- 
cnlato ; the branchca spreading, cymose, pubei-ulous, minutely bracteo- 
lafce. Flowera probably about -^iu. in^diam., their pedicels stout.'^id 
longer than themselves, CaJy^rAohe^ shorty broad^ rounded. Petals ovate, 
rather obtuse, coriaceous with broad membranous margins, indiijilicnta 
in bnd, glabi'ous, each with an elongated trigonous coiTugated process 
on its upper smface. Bine indistinctlj- 5-lobed, rugalose when dry. 
Stamens 5, with rather long filaments. Fruit nuknown, 
Singapore ; T. Anderaon. 
The description of the flowera of this species is taken from Kurz 
(Z. c ), The only specimens which I have seen are tAvo collected by the 
late Dr. T. Anderson at Singapore and named by Kura himself, and the 
flowers on these are too imperfect for examination. These specimens 
have quite t\n& fades of a Loph&pefalum allied to L, dblongifvlium.
