at the base, attached to base of petals and, more or less, to each 
other, forming at least an indication of a monadelphous condition. 
Anthers almost round and equal. Connective prolonged into a 
tapering awn, distinctly longer than the anther. Gynoecium 
hour-glass shaped, the ovary subspherical, the stylopodium as 
long as the ovary and almost columnar. The stylopodium 
abruptly narrowed into the style, which is rather less than half 
as long. The stigma is shallowly notched. Fruit 1 to 1.3 cm 
long and about 1 cm in diameter, roughly conical, apiculate. 
Calyx-wings of about equal length and less than two-thirds the 
height of the fruit. The wood is said to be more durable than 
that of Molave ( Vitex spp.). 
Luzon, Cagayan Province, near Claveria, For. Bur. 19987 Bernardo, 
August, 1913 (type). It is also represented by the following specimens: 
For. Bur. 20U53 Bernardo, in flower, May 30, 1913; For. Bur. 1777 4, 
17775, 17776 Curran, and For. Bur. 20U5U- All of these are from the 
same part of the province as the type. The local name is narec. 
The stylopodium resembles that of Hopea helferi Brandis, Journ. Linn. 
Soc. Bot. 31 (1895) p. 62, t. 2, f. 2, but is relatively longer. The stamens 
are like those of H. helferi (1. c. fig. 1) and like those figured for H. 
javanica Burck, Ann. Jard. Bot. Buitenz. 2 (1887) 235, t. 29, f. 7. 
Some sterile material in the herbarium representing collections in some 
other provinces may belong here, but the identifications are very doubtful. 
2. BALANOCARPUS BRACHYPTERA sp. nov. 
Arbor. Folia chartacea, elliptica, oblonga vel ovato-lanceolata, 
breviter acuminata, basi rotundata vel subcuneata, margine cre- 
nulata, glabra, 5.8 ad 7.3 cm longa, 2.7 ad 3.8 cm lata; nervis 
secundariis 10 ad 12, tertiariis inconspicue reticulatis; petiolo 3 
ad 5 mm longo. Fructus ovoideus, circiter 1 cm longus. 
A medium sized tree. Leaves chartaceous, elliptic or oblong to 
ovate-lanceolate, apex blunt-acuminate, base rounded or subcune- 
ate, margin crenulate, glabrous except along the principal veins, 
where there is a sparse pubescence, mainly of grayish pilose hairs, 
with hairy domatia in the axils of veins on under side of leaf, 
5.8 to 7.3 cm long, 2.7 to 3.8 cm wide. Secondary veins 10 to 12 
pairs, tertiary veins rather indistinct, mainly reticulate; petioles 
3 to 5 mm long. Flowers unknown. Fruits ovoid, about 1 cm 
long and 9 mm in diameter, borne in short axillary panicles. 
Calyx-lobes triangular-ovate, imbricate, rather closely surround- 
ing the fruit, and a little shorter than the fruit. Margins of 
the sepals frequently brownish and scarious, in one immature 
fruit, very slightly reflexed. Fruit conical, faintly pubescent, 
with thin pericarp, the short style projecting through a small 
circular depression at the apex. Style glabrous, about 0.5 mm. 
long.
