species, are coriaccons and have 10 to 13 pairs of nerves. The Perak plant 
may therefore belong to a distinct, but closely allied, species. Curtis' 
Penang specimens (No. 1401) are quite glabrous in all parts except the 
petals. 
8. DtPTEROCARPUS oblongifolius, Blume, Mus. Bot. Lugd. Bat. II, 
36 A tall tree: young branches glabrous, dark-coloured, sparsely 
lenticellate ; buds cylindric. Leaves coriaceous, oblong or elliptic- 
oblong, shortly and bluntly acuminate, the edges Bub-undulate, the 
base cuneate ; both surfaces shining, glabrous, the midrib and IS to J 6 
pairs of straight bold nerves with a few stellate hairs along their 
sides: length 6 to 8 in., breadth 2 to 2 75 in., petiole 9 to 11 in. 
Racemes slightly supra-axillary, densely tawny- tomeutose, bifurcating, 
each branch with 3 to 5 flowers and several linear membranous decid- 
uous bracts. Flowers about 2'5 in. long. Calyx-tube fusiform, slightly 
contracted at the mouth, 1 in. long, boldly 5-angled, densoly stellate 
tawuy-tomentose as are the 3 minor calyx lobes ; the 2 larger linear- 
oblanceolate lobes sparsely stellate-pubescent, boldly 1-nerved and with 
2 obscure lateral nerves. Ripe fruit unknown. Miq., Fl. Ind. Bat. I,

Perak, Scortechiui. Distrib. Borneo, Sumatra. 
Except as regards inflorescence, the Perak specimens of this are 
practically glabrous. In Bornean specimens, however, the young parts, 
buds and petioles are fusco-tomcntose. (Dyer L o.) 
9. D i pte HOC ar pus grandjplouus, Blanco, Fl. Filipp. Ed. 2, 314. 
A tree 80 to 120 feet high: young branches rather stout, sub-compressed, 
at first hoary-puberulous, but finally quite glabrous, nearly black when 
dry; leaf-buds shortly ovoid, minutely pale-canescent. Leaves coriaceous, 
ovate-elliptic, shortly acuminate ; the base broad, z-ounded or sub-truncate, 
sub-cordate; the edges entire or obsenrely undulate-crenate, both sur- 
faces glabrous; main nerves 14 to 16 pairs, spreading, rather straight, 
prominent on the lower, obsolete on the upper, surface; length G to 9 
in., breadth 3*5 to 5 in. ; petiole 2 to 3 in. long, glabrous. Racemes 
about 4- flowered. Flowers articulated to the rachis, 2 in, long. Calyx- 
tube 5-winged from base to apex. Petals liuear-oblong. Fruit oblong, 2'5 
in. long, wings stout, '5 in. or more in width ; the 2 accrescent lobes of 
the calyx oblong, obtuse, glabrous, reticulate, 3-nerved, the mesial 
nerve the longest and most distinct, 7 to 9 in. long and 15 to 2 in. broad, 
the smaller calyx lobes sub-orbicular. A.DC. Prod. XVI., 2 p. 6J2 ;
