Tetralopha (?) lenticellata sp. nov. 
Tetralophae polillensi valde affinis, sed ramis nigris conspicue lenticel- 
latis, flonbus brevioribus, filamentis inferius insertis distinguenda. 
Flowers umbellately inserted,, the peduncle more slender than in T. 
poliliensis, 7 to 12 mm long, the pedicels also more slender, 1.5 to 3 mm 
long; calyx 1.5 to 2 mm long, corolla 9 to 10 mm long; filaments inserted 
about 2 mm from the base of the corolla, 3 mm long, anthers 2 mm long. 
Habit probably the same as in T. poliliensis, but the bark of the branches 
blackish, conspicuously marked by white lenticels : petioles 7 to 17 mm 
long, lamina merely chartaceous, varying from oblanceolate through ellip- 
tic to lanceolate, 9 to 13 cm long, 3 to 5 cm wide, the apical acumen nar- 
rower and more acute. Otherwise as in T. poliliensis.
