of this character alone, the two must be kept distinct. This species is 
readily known by its boldly 5 to -7-nerved leaves and hard, globular, 
small fruit. 
28. Garcinu urophtlla, Scortechini MSS. A tree ; the branchlets 
very slender, terete, yellowish. Leaven thinly coriaceous, ovate- lanceolate, 
caudate-acuminate, the base cuneato ; both surfaces shining, the lower 
pale ; nerves 4 to 5 pairs, ascending 1 , distinct below when dry ; length 2'25 
to 3 in., breadth *7 to i'2 in., petiole '15. Male flowers '2 in. in diam., 
solitary or in pairs, from small bracteolate axillary tubercles : buds 
globose, pedicels 1 in. or less ; sepals 4, obtuse, sub-coriaceous, concave, 
subequal, ovate-orbicular ; petals 4, orbicular, almost flat, very fleshy, 
much thickened near the base ; stamens about 12, in a single group, with 
flat circular tops, the connective in the middle, and the anther round 
tho edge dehiscing circuniferentially ; filaments thick, fleshy : rudy. 
stigma 0. Female flowers axillary, solitary, sub-sessile : sepals and petals 
as in tho male ; staminodes about 6, free \ ovary cylindric ; stigma

In the size and shapo of the leaves, this has a superficial rcsom- 
bance to Q. rostrata, eugenia/alia and merguensis ; but the norves aro 
only 4 or 5, while in these the nerves are numerous. Moreover tho 
androeciura of this is totally different. 
20. Gakcinia unifloica, King, n. sp. A small tree; tho young 
branches rather stout, terete, of a dirty yellow when dry. Leaves ovate- 
oblong to elliptic-oblong, the apex abrupt ly shortly and sharply acuminate, 
the base cuneate ; both surfaces dull, the lower pale and opaque ; main 
nerveB 12 to 20 pairs, thin, but rather prominent, tho secondary nervos 
almost as distinct ; length 5'5 to 7'5 in., breadth 2'5 to 4*25 in. ; petiole 
75 to 1 in. thick, channelled. Male flowers '75 in. in diam,, solitary, sessile 
in the axils of fallen leaves, buds globular: sejmhi 4, sub-equal, obovate- 
orbicular, membranous, veined, concave; petals 4, orbicular, concave, 
fleshy, smaller than the sepals ; stamens rather numerous, in an undi- 
vided globose mass ; anthers sessile, peltate, or sub-globose with flat tops, 
dehiscing by a circular infra-marginal slit. Female floweis solitary and 
axillary like the males, and with a similar perianth; staminodes 0; 
stigma convex, deeply papillose ; the ovary short, cylindric. Fruit un- 
known.
