Cat. 8069. 
I have compared the authentic specimens of the Leiden Herbarium 
of C. patens , Blume, with the type specimens at Kew of G. fragrans, 
Hiern ; and I find them to agree exactly. I therefore adopt the older 
name. The male panicles of this are rather longer and wider at the 
base than the female panicles ; but both are pyramidal. I believe the 
plant issued by Wallich as a Gupania (No. 8069 of his Catalogue) may 
belong to this. The specimens are in fruit only and were originally 
named by Wallich Trichelia longissima. 
5. Dysoxylum, Blume. 
Trees, mostly glabrous. Leaves pinnate ; leaflets entire, opposite sub¬ 
opposite or alternate, more or less acuminate at the apex and oblique at 
the base, coriaceous. Flowers paniculate, racemose or spicate, hermaphro¬ 
dite. Galyx 4- rarely 5-fid, dentate or partite or sub-entire, imbricated, not 
accrescent. Petals 4, rarely 5, oblong, spreading, valvate or slightly 
imbricated. Staminal tube cylindrical, dentate or crenulate at the mouth; 
anthers 6, 8 or 10, short, included or the tips exserted. Disc tubular, 
equal to or twice as long as the ovary, crenulate or entire at the mouth. 
Ovary usually 3- 4-celled ; style about equalling the staminal tube; ovules 
usually 2 in each cell. Capsule globose or pear-shaped, coriaceous (often 
thickly so), 1- 4-celled, loculicidal; seeds arillate or exarillate, exal- 
buminous.—
