on each side of the midrib, distinct or indistinct, sometimes 
obscure, spreading, curved, anastomosing, the reticulations 
usually very obscure; petioles about 1 cm long. Inflorescences 
terminal, tripinnately paniculate, up to 12 cm in length, the 
branches racemosely arranged, alternate, the lower ones sub- 
tended by reduced leaves and up to 5 cm in length, the flowers 
umbellately arranged at the tips of the ultimate branchlets, 
crowded, 5 to 7 in an umbel, subsessile or pedicellate, the pedicels 
stout, up to 4 mm in length, the subtending bracteoles lanceolate, 
3 to 5 mm in length, the bracts similar but larger. Calyx-tube 
obconic, 3 to 4 mm long, the lobes broadly ovate to suborbicuiar- 
ovate, acute to somewhat acuminate, undulate, coriaceous, ob- 
scurely punctate, the margins somewhat ciliate, about 6 mm long, 
very prominently imbricate, the outer basal part often distinctly 
rounded-auricled. Petals ovate, subcoriaceous, about 6 mm long, 
somewhat acuminate, scarcely punctate. Anthers acuminate, 3 
mm long. Ovary glabrous; style 4 to 5 mm long, included 
in bud.

The alliance of this species is apparently with Ardisia lanceolata Roxb. 
and A. nitidula Mez. It is well characterized by its crowded, umbellately 
arranged, subsessile to shortly pedicelled flowers; its distinctly elongated 
calyx-tube; and its prominently imbricate sepals. It is dedicated to Captain 
J. C. Moulton, formerly director of the Sarawak Museum, under whose 
supervision extensive botanical collections were made for the Bureau of 
Science.
