P, jnnrtafa, Forst. iliquel (FJ. Ind, Bat. Vol. I, pt. 2, 558) t'educes it to 
T, tommdmaj Bl* wliich is iii my opinion doubtfully diHtinct from 2', 
ffiahrat Blume. But P. alnijolia appeal's to me a perrtjutly good diwl-inct 
species recognisable nt a glance fiom every form of P- pinnatti^ Ftxst. 
Besides the preceding there are iu tbe Herbarinm Calcutta two species 
of Pomelia wbicli, for want of complete material, I do not deecribe. One 
of these is from Ptiuang ^Curti^J, No. 1668). It bas entire leaflet a some- 
what like those of P. ahdfoUa and globular fruit, Flotcers are quite 
"wanting. For it I propose tlie name P. Cmimi The other is from 
Negri Sembitan, commnnicated by Mr, H, N. RidJey. Jtaltio has leailcta 
somewhat like those of P. alnifolia^ but broader and with entire undu- 
late edges. The inflorescence and flowers are qui te glabrous. Frait 
is wanting. To this I have gi veii Lhe MSS. name P» Midleyi.
