A species of whicli I bavo seen only Mr, Ctirtis's specimen from 
Kedah. It is readily distint^uislied from the preceding two by the tufts 
of white hair in the ajtils of the main nerves on the under surface of the 
leaflets. Tbe stigma is very minute and it ;s not easy to make out the 
three lobes which characterise the genns. The flowers have, however, 
the slamiiiodes and disc of the genus,
