about, 75 in. long. ; inner row with orbicular concave base and much 
acuminate apex, '5 in. long. Connective of stamens slightly produced 
at apex and obliquely truncate. Ovaries 4 to 6, hirsute ; ovules many, 
2-seriate ; stigma thick, discoid, sessile ; torus conic, truncate, pubescent. 
Ripe carpels solitary, or in pairs and divergent, oblong-ovoid, blunt at 
each end, minutely tomentose, 2 to 3 in. long, and 1 to 1*5 in. in diam. ; 
pericarp thick ; seeds 8 to 10, compressed, elongate and narrowly sub- 
reniform, transversely substriate. Unona virgata, 131 ume Bijdr. 14; Fl.

Blumc describes the carpels as from 3 to 5 ; but I have never found 
more than two, and it is difficult to understand how more can come to 
perfection on the comparatively small torus. In Java this is said often 
to be a bush from 6 to 8 feet high : in Perak it is a tall tree. 
2. Cyathocalyx Maingayi, Hook. til. and Thorns. Fl. Br. Ind. I, 
53. A tree 50 or 60 feet high : young branches rather stout, puberu- 
lous, speedily glabrous and dark-coloured. Leaves elliptic to oblong, 
thinly coriaceous, slightly obovate, shortly caudate-acuminate, the base 
rounded or slightly cuneate; npper surface shining, quite glabrous; 
the lower puberulous when young, ultimately glabrous ; the main nerves 
13 to 15 pairs, bold and prominent, spreading, interarching near the 
edge: length 5"8 to 8'8 in., breadth 2 75 to 3 75 in., petiole 3 in. 
Flowers 2 to 3 in. in diam., solitary or in short, 2- to 3-flowered racemes, 
axillary or extra-axillary : pedicels '5 to '75 in. long with a large stem- 
clasping bracteole near the apex. Sepals spreading or sub-reflexed, 
ovate, sub-acute, slightly connate at the base, puberulous on both sur- 
faces, '4 in. long. Petals thinly coriaceous, subequal, puberulous, obo- 
vate or broadly obnvate-lanceolate, blunt, the base with a short claw, 
pale greenish with a blotch of reddish yellow at the base, all (but 
especially the inner row) more or less convex, the inner row slightly 
concave and glabrous at the base inside. Stamens numerous, cuneate, 
short ; the connective produced into a broad, flat, orbicular, oblique expan- 
sion which over-hangs the dorsal linear anthers. Ovaries 3, narrowly 
ovoid, pubescent, ovules about 10 in 2 rows: style short, lateral : stigma 
large, lobed, villous. Ripe carpels 1 or 2, globular, 15 to 1*75 in. in diam., 
slightly tubercular when dry and minutely pubescent. Seeds 10 in 
2 rows, elongated, compressed.
