2 smaller ones inside. Carpels in the females 12 to 15, perfectly glabrous, with 
broad thick flat sessile stigmas. Drupes closely sessile, ovoid, smooth and' 
glabrous, about fin. long. — Hedycarya macrophylla, A. Cunn. in Ann. Nat.

Wood light-coloured, close-grained, and nicely marked. — Bailey's Cat. Ql. Woods, No. 307a. 
2. K. longipes (pedicels long), Benth. FI. Austr. v. 289. A tree of 
considerable size, perfectly glabrous in all its parts. Leaves elliptical oblong 
or ovate, shortly acuminate, entire or with a few irregular teeth, acute at the base, 
4 to 8in. long, smooth and somewhat shining but much thinner than in K. 
macrophylla. Peduncles slender, axillary or supra-axillary, divaricately branched, 
forming loose panicles often half as long as the leaves and very broad. Pedicels 
often lin. long, slightly thickened upwards. Bracteoles 1 or 2, minute, close 
under the perianth. Flowers monoecious, the males and females in the same 
same panicle, and the latter much the more numerous. Perianths 
nearly globular, 1 to If line diameter, the males with 4 connivent lobes, the 2 
outer broader than the 2 inner, and not thickened insids ; females with a small 
orifice closed by 4 small lobes, 2 outer and 2 inner, each with a thick reflexed 
gland-like scale inside. Stamens 4, more or less connate, with 1 or 2 small ones 
inside. Carpels in the females 11 to 13, oblong, conical, pubescent, with small 
glabrous stigmatic tips. Perianth circumsciss after flowering. Drupes ovoid, 
about fin. long, glabrous or smooth, very shortly stipitate on the expanded disk 
or base of the perianth. 
Hah.: Tropical scrubs. 
Very closely allied to, but perhaps really distinct from the Malayan K. coriacea. 
Wood straw-coloured, close in grain, bard and nicely marked. — Bailey's Cat. Ql. 
Woods, No. 308. 
3. KL. laxiflora (loose panicles of flowers), Bcntli. FI. Austr. v. 289. 
A small tree, the young branches and foliage more or less pubescent. Leaves 
elliptical or oblong, acuminate or obtuse, rounded or acute at the base, entire or 
slightly toothed, 2 to 4in. long. Panicles axillary or from leafless nodes, 
trichotomous and loose, but usually shorter than the leaves, the males more 
branched and with more flowers than the females, but sometimes both sexes in 
the same panicle. Pedicels 2 to 4 lines long, bearing often a small bract at 
some distance from the flower. Male perianth depressed-globular, 1 to If line 
diameter, the orifice almost closed by 4 small lobes. Stamens 4, united in a 
broad fleshy cup or tube, pubescent inside, and so far as observed without any 
additional inner stamens. Female perianth similar to the male, but twice the 
size, with a more minute orifice, and circumsciss after flowering, neither male 
nor female with any inflexed point or scale within the lobes. Carpels above 30, 
hispid, with short glabrous stigmatic styles, connivent and almost coherent at the 
tips. Drupes nearly globular or shortly ovoid, nearly fin. long, distinctly 
stipitate on the expanded disk or base of the perianth. 
Ilab.: Rockingham Bay and other tropical scrubs. 
4. K. pubescens (pubescent), Benth. FI. Austr. v. 290. A tree, the 
branches inflorescence and young foliage more or less pubescent, the older leaves 
often glabrous or nearly so. Leaves from broadly ovate-elliptical to oblong- 
lanceolate, obtuse or shortly and obtusely acuminate, shortly and rigidly toothed 
or nearly entire, rounded at the base, becoming at length coriaceous with the
