21. A glabrous tree 40 to 50 feet high. Leaves 9 to 14 in. long; leaflets 
sub-coriaceous, opposite, about 4 pairs, elliptic-oblong or elliptic, cuspi¬ 
date or shortly acuminate ; the base acute, slightly oblique; main nerves 
10 to 12 pairs, curved, spreading, stout and prominent on the lower 
surface; length 3'5 to 6 in., breadth 1*5 to 2'75- in., petiolules about '3 in. 
Panicles axillary or terminal, about half as long as the leaves or less ; 
their branches divaricating and racemoid, glabrous. Flowers not crowd¬ 
ed, about ’2 in. long, on short pedieels, bracteolate ; pedicels cylindric in 
bud. Calyx a very short obscurely 4-toothed cup. Petals 4, oblong, 
obtuse, minutely puberulous externally. Staminal tube free from and 
nearly as long as the petals, cylindrical, the mouth with 8 broad shallow 
crenulate teeth, glabrous outside, villous inside. Anthers 8, short, ovate, 
included. Disc tubular, glabrous, crenately 4-toothed, longer than and 
surrounding the ovary. Ovary glabrous, narrowly ovoid, tapering into 
the cylindric style. Stigma slightly exserted, discoid with a band round 
its base. Fruit depressed-globular with 3 shallow vertical grooves ; 
tapering at the base into a pseudo-stalk, 1*5 in. or more in diam., 4-cell- 
ed ; the pericarp woody, glabrous. Seeds sub-globular. 0. De Cand. in

20. A tree 30 to 60 feet high ; young branches rather stout, striate. 
Leaves 11 to 16 in. long, equally pinnate, the petioles and rachises 
puberulous: leaflets thinly coriaceous, 3 or 4 pairs, opposite, oblong-lan¬ 
ceolate to elliptic-oblong or elliptic, shortly acuminate, the base cuneate 
and slightly oblique; upper surface glabrous except the sometimes 
puberulous midrib, the lower glabrous : main nerves 8 to 11 pairs, 
spreading, prominent and almost winged on the lower faintly depressed 
on the upper surface ; length 3 to 5'5 in. or even 7 in., breadth P5 to 
2*25 in., petiolules '25 to ’4 in. Racemes slightly supra-axillary, slender, 
puberulous, few-flowered, 4 to 7 in. long. Flowers '5 in. long, distant, 
on short bracteolate pedicels. Calyx a short fleshy rugulose puberu¬ 
lous cup, with 4 broad triangular teeth. Petals 4, deflexed, many times 
longer than the calyx, narrowly oblong, slightly widened at the base ; 
the apex sub-acute, slightly thickened and indexed, externally with
