BAUHINIA CARDIOPH YLLA sp. nov. § Phanera. 
Frutex scandens, glaber; foliis late ovatis, usque ad 6 cm 
longis, integris, obtusis vel obtuse acuminatis, basi cordatis, 
7-nerviis, subtus glaucescentibus ; floribus racemosis, longe 
tenuiter pedicellatis, petalis oblongo-obovatis, circiter 11 mm 
longis. Species B. menispermaceae similis et affinis, differt 
foliis multo minoribus, floribusque minoribus. 
A scandent cirrhiferous glabrous shrub, the branches and 
branchlets reddish-brown when dry, terete. Leaves subcoria- 
ceous, broadly ovate, 3.5 to 6 cm long, 3 to 5 cm wide, base 
cordate, apex obtuse or obtusely acuminate, entire, the upper 
surface pale-brownish when dry, the lower glaucous; nerves 7, 
slender, none of them reaching the apex; petioles slender, 1 to 
2 cm long. Racemes terminal, glabrous, rather few-flowered, 
the pedicels slender, elongated, up to 3.5 cm in length. Buds 
clove-shaped, the tube slender, 4 mm long, narrowed into the 
pedicel, the limb ovoid, subacute. Sepals reflexed, oblong-ovate, 
acute or slightly acuminate, about 4.5 mm long. Petals some- 
what ferruginous-pilose on the back, unequal ; two oblong-obovate, 
rounded or retuse, about 11 mm long and 5.5 mm wide, base 
gradually narrowed, acute; three oblong-oblanceolate, as long 
as the other two but 2.5 to 3.5 mm wide and obtuse to somewhat 
acuminate. Fertile stamens 3; filaments glabrous, about 5 mm 
long; anthers short, wider than long. Sterile filaments nearly 
as long as the fertile ones. Ovary and style glabrous. Disk

Manifestly closely allied to Banhinia menispermacea Gagnep., which it 
greatly resembles, differing however in its much smaller size throughout; 
much smaller, thinner leaves, which are obtuse or blunt acuminate; smaller, 
few-flowered racemes; and smaller flowers. Bauhinia menispermacea 
Gagnep. is represented . by Native collector 129, 1282, 195h (Bur. Sci.), 
Matang Road, March, 1912. 
BAUHINIA HAViLANDU sp. nov. § Phanera. 
Frutex ut videtur scandens parce pubescentibus ; foliis oblongo- 
ovatis, acuminatis, integris, basi late rotundatis subcordatisque, 
5- vel 7-nerviis, chartaceis, usque ad 10 cm longis; inflorescentiis 
terminalibus, racemosis vel depauperato-paniculatis, dense mul- 
tifloris, bracteis bracteolisque linearibus ; petalis oblongo-obovatis 
ad oblongo-spatulatis, circiter 7.5 mm longis, crispatis, obtusis, 
extus pallide pilosis; ovario dense hirsuto.
