This is very nonrly rolftted to C. Curti$ii but differs markedly in having leafleti 
very glaucous beneatli, the leaflete being tvleo ratlier larger attd tlio potiolules 
aliorter ; \u baviug tlio Icaf-rachis, petiolnleB, and nevTea beneath glabrous ; and in 
having, as is sliowu by the acars on the raohia of the infruiteaoenoe, muoh more 
deneely flowcicd raofinies ; tbe podg also are larger tlmn in G. Curtisii, Flowers 
hjiTO not yet been sent. Of all the Malayan species, thia is the one that moat 
nearly approaches the Cejloa C*, zeylanica.
