30 to 60 feet high ; young shoots, petioles and rachises of leaves and 
inflorescences deciduously rusty stellate-tomentose, scabroid beneath the 
tomentum. Leaves 18 to 27 in. long, unequally pinnate; leaflets 9 to 13, 
alternate or opposite, sub-coriaceous, oblong to elliptic, shortly acumi¬ 
nate, the base slightly cuneate or rounded; upper surface glabrous, the 
lower sparsely and minutely stellately pubescent; main nerves 12 to 16 
pairs, slightly depressed on the upper surface when dry, bold on the 
lower ; length 4 to 8 in.; breadth 2 to 275 in.; petiolules *25 to *4 in. 
Panicles supra-axillary, solitary, nearly as long as the leaves, with few 
divaricating lax branches, densely and minutely rusty stellulate-pube- 
scent and scaly. Flowers obovoid, globose, '06 in. long, on pubescent 
pedicels shorter than themselves. Calyx shallow, cupular, deeply 
divided into 5 rotund, blunt, spreading lobes, pubescent externally. 
Petals 5, slightly unequal, ovate-rotund, concave, glabrous, much longer 
than the calyx. Staminal tube shorter than the petals, thin, puberulous, 
obovate, the mouth with 5 broad emarginate shallow teeth ; anthers 5, 
broadly ovate, small, inserted near the edge of the tube, included. Disc 
rather large, inferior to the ovary, pubescent. Ovary small, cylindric, 4- 
angled, glabrous. Fruit globular to ovoid, shortly pedicelled, dense¬

Although first collected so long ago as Wallich’s time, fruit of this 
very distinct species is now described for the first time. It resembles 
A. tenuicaulis and A. membranifolia to some extent in its leaves, but is 
a much larger tree than either, and its leaflets have a thicker texture. 
Its fruits are much smaller than those of A. membranifolia; and, 
although of about the same size as those of A. tenuicaulis , they are 
covered with much shorter tomentum. Specimens of this were disfri- 
buted from the Calcutta Herbarium under the MSS. name Aglaia 
cupanioidea , King MSS.
