into 5 linear acuminate rcflesed segments, lial f as long" as the pettds, 
tomentoso externally. Petals I i near, raacli acuminate, glabrous, white 
inside and purple outside, Stamem 5, shorter than the pistils, the 
anthers snh-globnlar. Pistih 5, the ovaries softly tomentose ; the styles 
spreading, recurved ; the stigma bifid. Fruit unknown,

This diffara notably from both tho other species of this gmm in its leaflofca 
baring often 5 instead of 3 leaflets. In tbe strnotare of its flovrets, bowovcr, it 
ngTues perfectly with the diii^tiosis df tbe genas. It h more nearly allied to A, 
veatita than to A. Wallkhii, but it differs from both iu the larger Qiimber of luuju 
nerTcs in. its leavea. Ita flowers are moreover larger than theao of A. vcatitay and 
the petals are dilTerently coloured. 
4, Agel^ea. HLTLLETTit, King n, spec. A woody creeper 15 to 20 
feet long ; j'oung branches minutely tomentose. Leaflets 3, coi'iaceotts j 
the terminal slightly the largest, narrowly elliptic-oblong ; the lateral 
pair slightly oblique, all with acute apices and cnneate bases ; the petio- 
lule of the terminal one from 5 to '75 iu. long, jointed; those of tlie 
lateral pair *25 in. long ; upper surface glabrous and minutely pitted, 
the lower finely reticulate, when young sub-lepidete and pabernlous, 
when adult glabrous ; main nerves 7 or 8 pairs^ spreading and curving 
upwards, prominent on the lower aud obsolete on the npper surlaco ; 
some of the intermediate nearly as distinct ; length of the terminal 
leaflet 6 to 9 in., breadth 2 to '2 5 in., the lateral pair rather smaller. 
Panicles less than 1 in. long, rainntely tomentose, crowded in the 
leaf -axils or from the axils of fallen leaves, many-flowered. Flowers 
'2 in. long and about the same across j their pedicels about '25 in. long. 
Calyx divided for two-thii'ds of ita length into 5 lanceolate segments, 
tomentose outside, glabreseent inside, Petah longer than the sepals, 
spreading, linear-oblong, glabrous, with a mesial rib, recurved from 
about the middle. Stamens 10, the alternate ones shorter, none of 
them so long as the pistils. Ovaries naiTowly oblong, tomentose, Sttjles 
sub-glabrous, slightly dirergiug. Follicles 1 to 3, bright red when ripe, 
woody, ovoid^ shortly beaked, externally tubercled and minutely rnsty- 
tomentose, inside glabrous, length "5 to '65 in. Seed sub-cylindric, com- 
pressed, tho upper half black, tbe lower pale and arillifarm^ *5 in. long,

This is diafcingaiehed from A, ^pinnata by tho leaflets being invariably 3 and the 
stameus being only 5 while, in that specIeSj there are often 5 leaflets and ahvnya 10 
Btiittiens. Thia rosombles A. WaUickii in some re«pecta, bat, it differs from that 
spct'iea in having larger leafletg more cnneate at the baae with aonte, not oandate 
acnminate, apices ami with more than twice as many main nerrea. Tbe Itfallets of 
tlitt former ar<i moraover (jmle glabrous at al? stwges, while iu thia the luwer sur- 
face of the young leaflets Ih puberuloaa aud lepidote.
