citer 20 cm longis, acuminatis, nervis utrinque 9 ad 12, perspi- 
cuis; inflorescentiis axillaribus, depauperato-paniculatis, 12 ad 
20 cm longis, ramis paucis ; floribus 4-meris, circiter 1 cm longis, 
petalis extus pubescentibus, liberis; antheris 6; ovario pubes- 
cente. 
A tree, at least 6 m high, probably higher, glabrous except 
the inflorescences. Branches grayish to brownish, the ultimate 
ones 5 to 10 mm in diameter. Leaves alternate, distant, 30 to 
80 cm long; leaflets alternate, or the upper ones subopposite, 
chartaceous, olivaceous and rather dull when dry, both surfaces 
minutely verruculose, oblong to oblong-ovate or oblong-elliptic, 
15 to 30 cm long (mostly about 20 cm), 6 to 11 cm wide; lateral 
nerves 9 to 12 on each side of the midrib, prominent, somewhat 
curved, obscurely anastomosing, the reticulations nearly obsolete. 
Panicles axillary, cinereous-pubescent, sparingly branched, 12 
to 20 cm long, the lower branches 6 cm long or less. Flowers 
white, 4-merous, their pedicels 2 to 4 mm long. Calyx some- 
what pubescent, 3 mm in diameter, shallow, somewhat 4-angled, 
obscurely 4-toothed. Petals 4, narrowly oblong, obtuse, pubes- 
cent externally, 10 mm long, 2.5 to 2.8 mm wide, free. Staminal- 
tube cylindric, glabrous on both surfaces, 9 mm long, crenulate. 
Anthers 6, about 1 mm long, included, inserted near the top of 
the tube. Disk cylindric, glabrous, crenulate, 3 to 3.5 mm long. 
Ovary ovoid, pubescent; style pubescent, about 7 mm long. 
Fruit obovoid, reddish-yellow, brown when dry, rather hard, 
6 to 7 cm long, 5 to 6 cm in diameter.

This species greatly resembles Dysoxylum platypliyllum Merr. in its 
vegetative and inflorescence characters, but is readily distinguished by its 
petals being pubescent outside and glabrous within; its entirely glabrous 
staminal tube; its six anthers; and its minutely and uniformly verruculose 
leaflets.
