No imtive tiatno ifl given for the specimen a of D. platysejmJum collected by 
Griffith, Jfaintf^y, nnd Wray. llohnborfi givos its Malay name an Tnerely ' Koran^ j 
Derry for his n. 510 collected in ISSJn (which, by the wny, is qiitt© different from his 
n, 510 collected in 1892) givve the iiame Sepun. For his n. 89 howe-per Derry givei 
tbe name Krangi ft' Kellat } the naine name is used by Goodenongh for his n. 1603. 
As explained under that species, Rnodenougb itlso natjs this name, with the name 
Krangi ambot as an Klteruative one, for D. Maiugayi ; and it is true tfaat thongh^ the 
flowers of D, Mairigayi tire quite different from those of D. pttitysepoliim, their 
frnits are exceedingly alike and fruiting Hpecimeiia of tlie tvro ai^e onlly to he easily 
difttingniahed by the absence of pabescuncw from the leaves of D. Maintj/ayi^ the 
presence of a, close golderi'brown pubeBuence on tbe under-surface of those of D, 
platvsepalum. GoodeaoQgli giTes no native name for the Johore examples, which 
are quite like those from I'erak hnd Mulftcoa.
