5. Aglaia glaucescens, n. sp. King. A shrub : young branches 
rather slender, the bark when dry cinereous lenticellate ; while young 
covered with pale rusty minute scurfy tomentum. Leaves 7 or 8 in. 
long, equally or unequally pinnate : leaflets 5 to 8, thinly coriaceous, 
oblong or elliptic-oblong or obovate-oblong, sub-acute, the base cuneate, 
both surfaces glabrous, the upper shining, the lower dull and sub-glau- 
ceous; main nerves 8 to 10 pairs, ascending, rather straight, slightly 
prominent on the lower surface ; length 3‘5 to 5'5 in., breadth 1‘75 to 
2 in. (rarely 3 in.), petiolules '35 to '5 in. Panicles solitary, axillary, 
nearly as long as the leaves, branching from near the base, very lax, 
few-flowered. Flowers ovoid, *1 in., long, on pedicels about as long as 
themselves. Calyx of 4 or 5 ovate concave ascending sepals, pubescent 
externally. Petals 4 or 5, larger than the sepals, thick, elliptic, obtuse, 
glabrous. Staminal tube nearly as long as the petals, cylindric, widen¬ 
ing at the sub-entire mouth ; anthers 4 or 5, shortly and broadly evate,

6. Aglaia Scortechinii, King, n. sp. A tree ; young shoots slender 
and, like the slender petioles, rachises, petiolules and inflorescences, with 
very minute brown scales. Leaves 6 to 12 in. long, unequally pinnate ; 
leaflets 7 to 9, the pairs opposite, membranous, lanceolate or oblong- 
lanceolate, shortly acuminate, much cuneate at the base; both surfaces 
quite glabrous, pale brown when dry ; the 7 to 10 pairs of main nerves 
indistinct; length 3’5 to 5 in. Panicles 7 to 9 in., the branches long, 
divaricating, lax. Flowers depressed-hemispheric, *05 in. in diam., on 
slender pedicels longer than themselves. Calyx short, spreading, with 
5 deep orbicular concave lobes, lepidote-pubescent externally. Petals 
5, orbicular or ovate-orbicular, concave, glabrous, much larger than the 
calyx. Staminal tube shorter than the petals, widely depressed-cam- 
panulate, the mouth with several broad much inflexed teeth, glabrous;
