76 G. King— Materials for a Flora of the Malayan Peninsula. [No. 1, 
Leaves 2 to 3 feet long, the petioles, rachises and petiolules covered 
with minute harsh tomentum, unequally pinnate; leaflets from 7 to 11, 
thinly membranous, elliptic-oblong, acuminate, the base cuneate; upper 
surf nee glabrous, pale greenish when dry, the lower surface darker and 
sometimes with a tinge of purple, very sparsely and minutely stellate- 
pubescent, the midrib boldly so; main nerves 20 to 30 pairs, faint on 
the upper, bold on the lower surface; length 9 to 15 in., breadth 2‘75 
to 5*5 in., petiolules only about *1 in. Panicles everywhere stellntely 
rusty-pubescent, slightly supra-axillary, with numerous, many-flowered, 
spreading branches. Flowers about ’035 in. in diam., depressed-globu¬ 
lar, almost sessile, often with a few bracteoles at the base. Calyx 
rotate, with 5 deep broad rounded membranous pubescent lobes. Petals 
5, broadly ovate to rotund, longer than the calyx, glabrous, concave. 
Staminal tube shorter than the petals, cupular, sub-entire, glabrous; 
anthers 5, ovate, curved, exserted. Ovary small, much depressed ; stigma 
depressed-spheroidal, vertically grooved. Fruit ovoid or ovoid-globose, 
tapering at the base into a short pseudo-stalk, densely covered with 
minute scaly tawny tomentum, 1 in. long, and *75 in. in diam.

This resembles A. tenuicaulis, Hiern; but it has smaller flowers, 
different calyx and staminal tube and larger fruit. The texture of the 
leaflets is also thinner and the stellate hairs on their under surface 
less numerous. 
23. Aglaia tenuicaulis, Hiern in Hook. fil. FI. Br. Ind. I, 556. 
A shrub or small tree 10 or 12 feet high with a slender stem 2 to 3 in. 
in diam. Leaves 3 feet or more in length, unequally pinnate ; the long 
petiole, rachises, petiolules and young branches densely stellate rusty - 
tomentose; leaflets membranous, oblong to elliptic, minutely cuspidate 
to shoi tly acuminate ; the base cuneate, rarely rounded ; upper surface 
glabrous, the lower sparsely minutely stellately rufous-pubescent; main 
nerves 15 to 20 pairs, spreading, obsolete on the upper prominent on 
the lower surface; length 6 to 12 in., breadth 2*5 to 4’5 in. ; petiolules 
•3 to *35 in., stout. Panicles slightly supra-axillary, everywhere densely 
rufous-pubescent like the petioles, about 12 in. long, with spreading 
densely-flowered branches, those bearing fruit only a few inches long. 
Flowers *05 in. long, globular, on pedicels longer than themselves. 
Calyx capular, stellate-pubescent outside, glabrous inside, with 5 deep 
acute spreading teeth. Petals 5, much longer than the calyx, ovate or 
sub-obovate, concave, elliptic, glabrous. Staminal tube shorter than the 
petals, globular, inflated about the middle of the sub-entire mouth, gla¬ 
brous except at the base inside ; anthers 5, short, ovate, included. Ovary
