shorter than the petals, cylindric, adpressed-pnbescent outside, the 
mouth almost entire or minutely toothed. Anthers 8, linear-elliptic, their 
apices not reaching the mouth of the tube. Pise much longer than the 
ovary, cylindric, glabrous externally, softly pubescent internally espe¬ 
cially at the acutely 8-toothed mouth. Ovary narrowly ovoid-conic, 
tapering into the long glabrous cylindric style, 4-angled, densely ad- 
pressed-pubescent; stigma exserted, thickly discoid, rugulose, with a 
narrow annulus at its base. Fruit turbinate, with four shallow vertical 
grooves and four broad rounded angles, sub-glabrous, crowned for a time 
by the persistent stout short style, when fully ripe white slightly 
tinged with pink, about 1*25 in. long, and P5 in., or more in diam.

I follow Miquel and M. C. deCandolle in keeping this species up. 
It is, however, very closely allied to D. ex^elsum, Bl. The panicles of 
Perak specimens are rather shorter and fewer-flowered than in those 
collected in Borneo ; in other respects they agree.

A tree 30 to 5) feet high. Leaves 1 to 2 feet long, their petioles and 
racliises deciduously rusty-puberulous, angled, unequally pinnate ; leaf¬

tic, shortly acuminate, the base cuneate or rounded at one side and 
obliquely cut away at the other; both surfaces glabrous except the 
pubescent midrib ; main nerves 8 to 13 pairs, spreading, rather promi¬ 
nent on the lower surface ; length 4 to 7 in. occasionally 12 in., breadth 
1*75 to 2 - 75 in., petiolules 2 to *3 in. Spikes from 1 to 3 in. long, 
tawny-tomentose, in dense clusters on rugose woody tubercles from 
the stem. Flowers '3 to ‘35 in. long, their pedicels about ‘1 in., 
bracteolate at the base. Calyx cupular, with 3 or 4 broad irregular 
teeth, pubescent. Petals 4, oblong, obtuse, glabrous inside, glabrous 
or puberulous outside, free from the staminal tube. Stammal tube 
cylindric, glabrescent or sparsely sericeous outside, sericeous inside,

Disc tubular, membranous, longer than the ovary, glabrous, the mouth 
obscurely crenate. Ovary narrowly ovoid, densely pilose ; the style 
cylindric, sparsely pilose in the lower, glabrous in the upper half.
