xxxvii. 247. A small tree or evergreen glabrous shrub. Leaves petiolate, vary- 
ing from oval-oblong or almost obovate to oblong-elliptical or almost lanceolate, 
obtuse or acuminate, 2 to 3in. long, cuneate or narrowed at the base, finely and 
almost transversely penniveined. Peduncles axillary, lateral or terminating- 
short leafy shoots, bearing usually 3 or 5 flowers but sometimes more, in a loose 
trichotomous panicle. Calyx-tube turbinate, 1A to nearly 2 lines diameter ; lobes 
very unequal, the largest nearly as long as the tube. Petals nearly 3 lines 
diameter, spreading and separately deciduous. Outer stamens nearly Mn. long. 
Ovary about half the length of the calyx-tube, with a cluster of 8 to 10 ovules 
in each cell. Fruit red, ovoid or nearly globular, crowned by the calyx-limb. —

23. E. punctulata (leaves punctate), Bail. Bot. Bull. xiii. Tree often tall, 
branchlets somewhat compressed approaching 4-angled. Leaves subcoriaceous, 
broadly lanceolate, the apex obtusely acuminate, tapering towards the base and 
almost sessile, attaining a length of 3Mn. and lfin. width in the centre, the 
lateral veins almost transverse, the upper surface in the dried specimens closely 
covered by sunk dots. Flowers in axillary or terminal very short panicles of 
sessile flowers. Calyx-tube about 5 lines long, pear-shaped and often somewhat 
angular, produced above the ovary, lobes 4, unequal, the larger ones about 2 lines 
broad. Petals about twice the size of the calyx-lobes, separately deciduous. 
Stamens flexuose and not much longer than the petals. Style about as long as 
the stamens. Fruit bright-red, and more or less lobed near the top, juicy, about 
fin. diameter. Seeds few.

specimen gathered by the late Rev. B. Scortechini, without note of locality. 
24. E. sordida (appearance shabby), Bail. Bot. Bull. v. A small tree with 
rather scanty foliage. Leaves under 3in. long, and from f to fin. broad, sub- 
coriaceous, narrow-lanceolate, obtuse. Petiole about 2 lines long, the midrib 
alone prominent, the primary veins looping near the margin. Flowers few, in 
short head-like racemes terminating lateral shoots ; peduncle about 2 or 3 lines long ; 
bracts oblong, minute ; flowers sessile, or the calyx-tube, which is very open at 
the top, tapering into a very minute pedicel, about 2 lines long, glabrous ; lobes 
somewhat orbicular, only slightly persistent. Petals slightly exceeding the calyx- 
lobes. Stamens under 3 lines long. No fruit seen.
