5. Pajanelia, DC. 
A large tree, glabrous except the flowers. Leaves large, impari- 
pinnate ; leaflets entire, numerous. Flowers large, in large terminal 
thyrsoid panicles, dark red. Calyx large, ovoid and closed in bud, in 
flower ventricose-campanulate ; lobes 5. Corolla-tube cylindric below, 
ventricose-campanulate above, wide at the mouth ; limb sub-bilabrate, 
lobes 5, spreading, recurved, unequal. Stamens 4, with a rudimentary 
fifth, didynamous, sub-exsert ; filaments slender ; anthers glabrous, cells 
oblong, divergent. Disk annular. Ovary 2-celled, ovules on each 
placenta numerous, oo-seriate. Fruit an elongate narrowly oblong 
capsule, loculieidally dehiscing, the septum contrary to the valves, the 
margins of the valves extended in broad wings. Seeds in several rows 
on the edges of the septum, compressed, with hyaline wings; cotyledons 
flat, radicle small. — Distrib. A single S.E. Asiatic species. 
Pajanelia multijuga, DC. Prod. IX. 227 (1845). A large evergreen 
tree, reaching 60 to 80 feet in height and 2 feet in diam. of stem ; 
glabrous except the corolla ; bark -25 in. thick, dark grey, rough; branches 
thick, lenticellate. Leaves imparipinnate, P5 to 3 feet long, glabrous ; 
rachis angular ; leaflets 10 to 12 pairs with a terminal one, very unequal- 
sided, elliptic-ovate, acute at apex, rounded at base on the upper, cuneate 
on the lower side, chartaceous, margins entire recurved, 4 to 8 in. long, 
2-5 to 3 p 5 in. broad ; midrib slender, main-nerves 9 on upper, 7 on lower 
side, reticulations transverse ; petiolule stout, -2 to -3 in. long. Panicles 
thyrsoid, 12 to 18 in. long; rachis stout, fleshy, lenticellate; primary 
branches 1 to 2 in. long, similar, secondary di- tri-chotomously branched ; 
pedicels -5 in. long ; bracteoles minute ; flowers large, pale yellow, 
throat purple within. Calyx closed in bud, in flower campanulate, 
1 to 1'5 in. long; tube broad at base with keel-like folds without, lobes 
5, irregular, acute. Corolla 2 to 2-5 in. long, cylindric below, then 
somewhat constricted, then ventricose-campanulate ; lobes 5, unequal, 
at first parallel-sided, then broadening into a blunt rounded crispately 
crenulate limb ; the upper part of the tube and the lobes, especially on 
the margin, grey-pubescent. Stamens 4 with a rudimentary fifth, 
didynamous; filaments slender, glabrous; anther-cells oblong, diver- 
gent. Disk annular, pulvinate, glabrous. Ovary sessile, oblong ; style 
slender, angled, broadening upwards into a 2-lobed clavate stigma ; 
cells 2, ovules very numerous. Capsule flat, lanceolate, broadly winged, 
the wings split, glabrous, 1 to 1'5 feet long, 2 to 2-5 in. broad; septum
