1 retain for this plant the name adopted for it by Masters in 
Hooker's Flora of British India. But Blume's Q. paniculata (Bijdr. 
115) was published seven years before Roxburgh's. I have not seen 
any specimen of Blume's plant i but if it be the same as this, then 
Blume's name must be substituted for that of Roxburgh as the author 
of tbe specific name. If Blume's plant, however, be different from 
Roxburgh's, then some other name must be found for the latter. That 
the plant above described is what Roxburgh meant to call O. -paniculata, 
Ins coloured drawing in the Calcutta Herbarium leaves no room for 
doubt.
