when adult, with n few small scattered white stellate liairs when young ; 
under surface pale from a layer of minute whitish hairs, the midrib 
and ) 6 to 18 pairs of sub-horizontal lateral nerves rufous-tomentose ; 
length 2*5 to 3 in., breadth i"2 to 1*4 ; petiole about I in., slender, scaly- 
tornentose. Panicles about as long- as the leaves, slender, in the axils 
of young leaves, pulverulent-tomentose, sub-ferruginous; branches 
short, spreading. Oulyx pedicellate, ovoid-oblong, pointed in bud, when 
adult *3 in. loug, widely campanulate, with 5 linear incurved pubescent 
lobes as long as the tube. Staminal column shorter than the tube, 
glabrous; anthers about 12, sessile at the apex of the column, their 
connective thick, cnueate, the cells divergent. Follicles unknown.

Recognisable at once by its small leaves, white beneath. The 
figure named S. bieolor, Mast, by Pierre (FI. Forest. Coch-Chine fc. 187) 
agrees neither with ftf. Pierre's own description of it ; nor with Masters' 
type specimen. There may probably have been some printer's blunder 
in the matter. 
11. S. anuustikolia, Roxb. Hort. Beng. 50. A small tree: young 
branches densely velvetty rusty-tomentose ; ultimately rather pale, 
glabrous, warted and striate. Leaves membranous, oblong-lanceolate 
rarely ovate-lanceolate, acuminate or acute, entire, slightly narrowed 
to the Tounded 3-nerved base : upper surface glabrous, the lower more 
or less densely and softly rusty-tomentose: length 4 to 7 in., breadth 
125 to 2 25 ; petiole "6 to 11 in., rusty-tomentose. Panicles solitary, 
axillary, crowded at the apices of the branches, lax, drooping, longer 
than the leaves, everywhere densely rusty-tomentose; pedicels much 
longer than the ovate pointed buds. Calyx *2 in. in diam., hispidul- 
ons-pubescent everywhere except the tube which inside is glabrous, deeply 
divided into 5 linear-lanceolate lobes ; the lobes longer than the tube, 
spreading, connivent, cohering by their tips, their edges recurved. Male 
/lower: staminal column as loug as the tube, glabrous, recurved, bearing 
at its apex 10 oblong sessile authors with large connective, the cells 
slightly divergent. Herm. flower : gynophore short, glabra ua : ovaries 5, 
ovoid, rusty-tomentose with a ring of 10 sessile anthers at their base : 
HUle short, sparsely pilose: stigmas muoh longer than style, fleshy, 
spreading, recurved. Follicles 4 or 5, ovate-oblong with a short curved 
beak, 2 75 in. long and 1"35 in. broad, densely but minutely velvetty 
rusty tomentose outside, smooth shining and rugose inside and with a 
few small scattered whitish hairs. Roxb. Fl. Ind. iii. 148. Pierre FL
