leaves, mucli crowded at the points of the branches, Flowers - 15 in. 
long : pedicels slender, three times as long. Calyx-tube tomentose ex- 
ternally, sparsely pubescent within ; staminal tube less than half its length. 
Female calyx rather longer than the male, otherwise the same : 
stamens 0 : ovaries 5, obliquely ovoid, glabrous, each with a pubescent 
conic style crowned by a small hooked stigma. Ripe fruit compressed- 
ovoid, 1'25 to 1'5 in. long, and 1 to l'lo in. in diam., glabrous, the 
wing falcate, 2 in. long and "5 in. broad, striate.

In its leaves this much resembles T. Javanica, Bl, (Rumphia iii. t. 
127, fig. 1) ; but the leaves of Blume’s plant ai’e smaller and have more 
wavy edges. The flowers, however, of the two differ much in size, those 
of this being twico as large as the flowers of T. Javanica. 
2. T. Curtisii, King, n. sp. A tree 20 to 40 feet high ; young 
branches, petioles, petiolules and under surfaces of leaves densely covered 
with rusty stellate, non-deciduous tomentum. Leaves digitately 5 or 
6-foliolate, the lower smaller, obovate, entire, wavy, apex retuse, base 
acute; upper surface minutely areolate, glabrous except the stellate- 
tomentose midrib and main nerves ; under surface, and especially the 
midrib, stellate-tomentose : main nerves 9 or 10 pairs, spreading, pro- 
minent beneath : length of the middle leaflet 35 to 4’5 in., of the lower 
P5 to 25 iu. ; breadth of the middle 2'25 to 2'5 in., of the lower '8 to 
1'5 in., petiolules "5 to - 75 in., petioles 2 to 2'5 in. Inflorescence in 
solitary, axillary, cymose racemes or few-flowered panicles, more than 
half as long as the leaves. Ripe fruit glabrous, compressed-ovoid, 1 in. 
long and '8 in. broad ; wing narrowly falcate, 1'25 in. long and '25 in 
broad, striate. 
Penang at 2000 feet : Curtis No. 1427. 
This is known only by Curtis’s scanty specimens which are in fruit 
only. Its flowers are unknown. In leaves it closely approaches T. 
Perakensis, but the tomentum is stellate and persistent ; whereas in T. 
Perakensis, the hairs are simple and deciduous. The leaflets of this 
are also smaller, fewer-nerved, more decidedly obovate, less elliptic than 
in T. Perakensis, and they are mucronate rather than; acuminate. 
3. T. siMPLiciFOLiA, Mast, in Hook. fil. FI. Br. Ind. i. 362. A 
tree, young branches pale, sub-glabrous, striate. Leaves simple, coria- 
ceous, elliptic or obovate-elliptic, apex truncate or emarginate, shortly 
mucronate, entire, rather suddenly narrowed at the base or rounded ; 
upper surface glabrous, shining ; lower dull, rusty, minutely puberulous,
