• 5. Mastitta Claekeana, King n> ep, A tree 40 to 60 feet higli ; 
young branches slender, striate, glabrona. Leaves opposite, thinly 
coriaceous, oblong or oblong-lanceokte, narrowed to the rounded op 
sub-acubo base j the apex rather abmptly and somewhat bluntly acu- 
minate ; both surfaces glabrous, the upper pale olivacooua-green, the 
lower dull, pale brownisli when diy; main-nerves 5 to 6 or 7 pairs, 
ascending, slightly carved, impressed on the upper surface, prominent 
on the lower; length 3 to 4 in. ; breadth 1 to 1-35 in. ; petiole '3 to '35 
in. Cyvies terminal, nearly as long as (or sometimes longer than) the 
leavesj pedunculate, with rather numerous many-flowered angular 
puberulous brancliea : bracteoles minute, opposite in pairs, lanceolate 
or ovate, concave. Flowers "l in. long, sessile. Oahjx funnel-shaped, 
pubescent outside, the month with 4 deep broadly ovate teofch. Corolla 
depressed-globular in bud. Petals 4s, nearly as long as the cnlyx-teeth, 
ovate-rotund, concave. Stamens 4: anthers short, ovate-rotund, fila- 
menta short, JDiso fleshy, 4-lobe(I. Style short, compressed. Siigma

TbBTo are in Herb. Cal. BpHecimens belonging to four distinct Bp&oies of Mastiua 
which are too imperfect to be named, and vrMoh I ha>ve been nnabia io ihateh with 
Any already doioribed species , Tlieae are as follows 
(a) . Two gathc3ringg {Wray 1234 and Eing^s Gollettor 2907) of fv plant collected 
a tan elevation of from 3000 to 3400 feet in Pemk which is ©ndcntly a MaHtixia, 
In their leaves these resemble M, MoMigayi, Clarke, var. sub-ixtmentosa. King 5 bub 
the nuder flarfacoa fire more glabrous and the main-Derves are rather more obliqae 
thAB in that p]ant ; the yonng bratichea are moreover of a dark colour and almoBb 
glahroas, while those of iSf. Mairtgayi nre pale and rufeEcentlj tomentoae. Theee 
speoimena are in fruit, and none of them has a aingle flower. The frnit ia narrowly 
ellipsoid, attenuate gradnaltj to the apex, smooth, 1*2 in. long, and '4 to. in diam. 
While the leaves so ggest a relation ahip to If , Maingayi^ the remaina of the calyx- 
lobea at the apex of the fruit, which are 4-lobsd, snggeat perhaps a still cloaer 
affinity to the tetraraeroua species M, Clarkeana^ King. 
(b) . A Rpecimeii from Penang (Herb. Curtis 91 &) which la in fruit only. 
(c) . Specimens of a telriamcroiifl spcciea (In frnifc only) from the Andamftna 
with leaves etherwiBO like those of M. pcntandrOf Bl., but obectu-ely serrate.
