which is retuse at the apex. Petals all clawed, and about, equal in length ; 
standard with a 7 mm long claw, the lamina orbicular, retuse, 2.5 cm 
wide, with two auricular callosities, at the base. Stamens all fertile, the 
vexillary filament free at the base, united above with the others. Ovary 
densely villous. Pods (immature) about 18 cm long, 5 cm wide, rather 
flat, not much thickened on the dorsal suture, ferruginous-pubescent, the 
apex acuminate. Seeds 3 to 5. 
Mindanao, Province of Surigao, Bolster 330, with flowers and immature fruits, 
April, May, 1906, in forests along streams at an altitude of about 60 m. 
Of the two species here described, the above approaches closest to the type 
of the genus, Uacropsychanthus lauterbachii Harms, of New Guinea. It is, 
however, quite distinct from that species. 
2. Macropsychanthus ferrugineus sp. nov. 
Prutex scandens, ramulis foliis inflorescentiisque ferrugineo-pubescen- 
tibus; foliolis ovatis vel elliptieo-ovatis, acuminatis, stipitellatis ; stipulis 
basi productis; fioribus 2.5 cm longis; staminibus omnibus fertilibus; 
leguminibus usque ad 18 cm longis, 7 cm latis; seminibus 2.5 cm diametro, 
hilo lineari semicinctis. 
A scandent woody vine reaching a height of at least 10 m, the stems 
grayish-brown, terete, lenticellate, glabrous, the younger parts rather 
strongly ferruginous-villous as are the petioles and leaflets. Leaves 
very similar to those of Philippine Dioclea reftexa; .petiole about 15 cm 
long, subtended by a pair of 1 to 1.5 cm long stipules attached by their 
median portions, and about equally long above and below the point of 
attachment; leaflets ovate to elliptic-ovate, subcoriaceous, 10 to 20 cm 
long, 5 to 13 cm wide, ferruginous-villous on both surfaces; nerves 11 
to 13 on each side of the midrib; petiolules about 5 mm long; stipels 
acicular, villous, about as long as the petiolules. Eacemes 30 to 40 cm 
long, ferruginous-pubescent, flower-bearing in the upper half, the nodes 
produced as short, club-shaped branehlets, each bearing several flowers, 
each node subtended by a lanceolate, deciduous, ferruginous, bract about 
7 mm long. Flowers 2.5 cm long, pink. Calyx 1.5 cm long, ferruginous- 
pubescent outside, somewhat villous within, the lower three teeth oblong- 
ovate, about 7 mm long, 5 mm wide, the upper two connate into a 6 mm 
long and wide lobe, cleft about one-third its length into divergent teeth. 
Petals all clawed ; standard 2.5 cm long, the claw stout, about 7 mm. long, 
the lamina orbicular, 2 cm wide, retuse, not auricled at the base but 
with a thickened swelling; wings equalling ■ the standard, about 8 mm 
wide, decurrent-acuminate at the base ; keel as long as the other petals, 
incurved, hooded, 1 cm wide (not spread), decurrent-acuminate at the base. 
Staminal-tube curved, the filaments all antheriferous, the vexillary one 
free at the base, somewhat united with the others above. Ovary villous. 
Pod almost woody, turgid, 11 to 18 cm long, 6 to 7 cm wide, at first 
ferruginous-pubescent, when very old glabrous or nearly so, nearly 1 cm 
thick on the dorsal suture, at least 2 cm thick in the middle. Seeds
