branches stout, minutely cinereous-puberulous. Leaves 18 to 24 in. 
long, unequally pinnate; leaflets 11 to 17, sub-opposite or opposite, sub- 
coriaceous, oblong-lanceolate to ovate-lanceolate, caudate-acuminate;

lower sub-glaucous; main nerves 8 to 13 pairs, spreading, slightly pro¬

petiolules '25 to *4 in. Panicles axillary, solitary, about half as long as 
the leaves, stellate-pubescent, on long peduncles, much branched, the ulti¬ 
mate branclilets cymulose. Flowers ‘2 in. long, narrowly ovoid, on bracteo- 
late pedicels nearly as long as themselves. Calyx rather deeply cupular, 
tomentose outside, the mouth with 3 shallow broad teeth. Petals 3,
