Petiole length 0*5 in. to 1*1 in., stout, glabrous, rugose. 
Leaves alternate, simple, penninerved. 
Length 4 in. to 7 in., width 1*7 in. to 3*5 in. ovate to oblong, base 
rounded or cordate. Apex obtuse or acuminate. 
Coriaceous, glabrous above and below. Secondary nerves 6-10 on 
each side of midrib, arcuate, prolonged parallel to margin. Midrib and 
secondary nerves slightly prominent above, strongly prominent below, 
tertiary nerves parallel, perpendicular to midrib, the tertiary nerves and 
reticulate nervules sometimes more prominent above than below,* in the 
majority of the secondary nerve axils are large glabrous gland-like 
swellings which are perforate below, leaf-surface above minutely 
pustulate. Margin cartilaginous, slightly undulate. 
Indorescence. Flowers in fascicled axillary panicles, the panicles 
glabrous, 2 to 4 together, attaining a length of 2 in. to 6 in. 
Bracteoles at base of pedicel apparently early deciduous while flower 
still in bud, only one seen, oblong, 0*06 in. long, 0*03 in. wide, glabrous 
dorsally, on inner surface a few minute hairs. 
Pedicels stout, 0*04 in. to 0*08 in. long, jointed at base, glabrous. 
Calyx tube glabrous, 0*02 in. to 0*04 in. long, adnate to torus. 
Calyx lobes 5, imbricate, glabrous. The two exterior the largest, 
ovate-oblong to deltoid, obtuse, length 0*16 in. to 0*18 in., width 0*09^. 
to 0*1 in., eciliate, the three interior lobes sub-orbicular, acute, length 
0*1 in. to 0*13 in. and width 0*09 in. to 0 12 in., eciliate or with a few 
minute hairs on the margin above. 
Petals 5, contorted, overlapping sometimes to the left and sometimes 
to the right, slightly connate at base, length 0*33 in. to 0*36 in., width 
0*1 in., falcate-oblong, terminating in an ovate or slightly flabelliform, 
membranous, crisped apex, glabrous within, 10 to 12 nerved. According 
as the overlap is to the right or left, the right or left-hand half is 
dorsally densely stellate pubescent. 
Stamens 15, adnate to base of corolla, filaments much dilated and 
flattened at base, the filament of each alternate stamen is more or less 
adnate to the filament of the stamen immediately in front of it, there 
thus being 5 single stamens and 5 pairs of stamens; anthers introrse, 
2-celled, longitudinally dehiscent, suborbicular, diameter exceeding 0*01 in. 
but less than 0*02 in., connective produced as a slender awn, 0*04 in. long. 
Ovary superior, glabrous or very minutely or sparsely puberulous 
above, 0*03 in. to 0*04 in. long, stylopodium stout, ovoid or oblong, length 
0*03 in. to 0*04 in., glabrous or very minutely and sparsely puberulous, 
style short, cylindrical 0*02 in. long, glabrous, minutely 3-lobed at apex.
