3. Amoora Aphanamixis, Schultes fil. Syst. VII, 1621, Phan. I, 
581. A tree 20 to 30 feet high ; young branches rusty puberulous, ul¬ 
timately glabrous and (when dry) black. Leaves 15 to 25 in. long, 
unequally pinnate; leaflets 11 to 17, sub-coriaceous, oblong, oblong-ob- 
ovate to elliptic, shortly and obtusely cuspidate; the base rounded, very 
unequal-sided; glabrous when adult; main nerves 10 to 12 pairs, 
slightly prominent beneath; length 4 to 6 or even 8 in., breadth 2 to 
2'75 in.; petiolules stout, *15 to ‘25 in. long. Panicles slightly supra- 
axillary, shorter than the leaves, puberulous, those with male flowers 
with numerous short divaricating rather distantly-flowered racemose 
branches. Flowers on very short pedicels, sub-globose, about *25 in. 
in diam. Calyx cupular, with 5 rounded imbricate sepals, thickened 
in the lower half and puberulous outside. Petals 3, thick, rotund, 
concave, much larger than the sepals, glaberulous. Staminal tube 
shorter than the petals, fleshy, glabrous, ovoid, with a small entire 
mouth; anthers 6, elliptic, included. Ovary depressed, 3-celled, gla¬ 
berulous ; stigma elongate, conical, fluted. Female flowers in rigid, un¬ 
branched or only slightly branched racemes, sessile like the males but 
with larger ovaries. Fruit ovoid-globose (ripe example not seen), gla¬ 
brous. Miq. FI. Ind. Bat. I, pt. 2. p. 535: Ann. Mus. Lugd. Bat. IV,

opposite or alternate, coriaceous, oblong or elliptic-oblong, sub-acute 
or shortly acuminate, the base cordate and slightly oblique; upper sur¬ 
face glabrous, shining, the lower densely covered by minute rusty
