A very distinct species, which combines the stigmas characteristic of an Euerythro- 
cocca with the stipules of an Athroa?idra . 
25 . E. polyandra. Calyx maris 3-lobus. Stamina 10-13 > glandulae 
ovoideae, glabrae. Stigmata ovato-lanceolata, sub anthesi divaricata demum 
recurva, in apice styli brevis insidentia, margine inciso-lobulata.— Claoxylon 
polyandruni , Pax et K. Hoffm. in Engl. Bot. Jahrb., xlv. 327 (1910). 
[VIII b.] East Africa : Zanzibaria. German East Africa: Wilhelms- 
tal; Kwai , Albers 36 \ Tanga; Amani, Warnecke 219! Kraenzlin 2182! 
In general facies this species most resembles E . pauciflora and may perhaps be 
looked upon as its East African representative. But it approaches the sub-genus 
Athroandra more closely than E. pauciflora does; besides having the unmodified 
stipules of an Athroandra it has stigmas that, but for being incised-lobulate along the 
margins, resemble those of the species in the group Oleraceae.

Stipidae immutatae, minutae, scarioso-hyalinae. Pemdae semper per¬
