the apex of the thick connective, dehiscing along the convexity : stigma 
very large, discoid, smooth, depressed in the centre, covering the 
stamens. Hermaphrodite jlowers in 3-dowercd, axillary, solitary, sessile, 
bractcolate cyme* ; sepals as in the male ; petals 4, orbioular-roniform,

This is readily distinguished by its small flowers on slender pedicels, 
and by its flattened buds : also by the sub-horizontal, close, rather 
distinct, venation of the leaves. 
4. Gauclnja ccspidata, King, n. sp. A troo 60 to 70 feet high ; the 
young branches terete, dark-coloured. Leaves elliptic- ovate, shortly 
sub-spathulate, cuspidate, the base narrowed; upper surface shining, 
the lower dull; nerves sub-horizontal, distinct beneath when dry, 1 in. 
apart, anastomosing with an iutramarginal nerve; length 2*5 to 3"25 in,, 
breadth 11 to 1*5 in., petiole '3 in. Male flowers '15 in, in diam., in 
shortly peduuculato, axillary, 6 to 9-tiowercd, spreading cymes ; buds 
pyriform ; pedicels slender, '3 to *6 long ; sepals 4, equal, rcflexed, or- 
bicular, thin, concave; petals 4, reflexed, covering the stamens and 
stigma in bud, thin, orbicular, concave, a little larger thau the sepals : 
stamens numerous, on both sides of 4 floshy processes, filaments very 
short and thick: anthers with 4 globular cells, each dehiscing by a long 
vortical suture ; style short, cylindric ; stigma capitate, small, quite 
concealed by the stamiual masses. Female flowers and fruit unknown,

Collected only once by the late Mr. Knnstler. The leaves a good 
deal resemble those of <•', rosfrata, Hassk.; but the nerves are slightly 
more distinct, and the flowers have a different androeciura, although 
externally they much resemble those of Q. rostrata, Hassk. 
5. Garcinia Wrayi, King, n. sp, A small spreading tree; young 
branches very slender, terete, dirty yellow. Leaves thinly coriaceous, 
ovnte or elliptic, the apex produced into a long snb-spathulato point, 
the base cuneate ; npper surface Bhining, the lower dull, pale ; nerves 
slender, sub-horizontal, 05 in. apart, invisible on the npper and faint- 
on the lower surface even when dry ; length 2 to 25 in., of which
