tic, blunt-, concave especially towards the apex. Staminal tube shorter 
than the petals and darker in colour, globular-cylindric, the mouth 
obscurely lobed. Anthers 7 or 8, elliptic, included. Ovary pyramidal, 
fleshy, grooved, pubescent, 2-celled, crowned by the glabrous, broadly 
and shortly cylindric, grooved, indistinctly 2-lobed stigma. Ovules 2 
in each cell, superposed. Fruit obovoid or pyriform, shortly apiculate, 
minutely scaly-tomentose, about 1 in. long including the pseudo-stalk, 
and *8 in. in diam., apparently indehiscent, 1- or 2-seeded.

This differs from typical Aglaia in having 7 or 8 stamens, and its 
stigma is that of Amoora rather than of Aglaia. The inflorescence 
resembles that of Aglaia argentea, Bl.

A tree 30 to 40 feet high ; young branches, petioles, midribs, inflorescence 
and calyx covered with pale-brownish deciduous scales. Leaves 12 to 15 
in. long, unequally pinnate ; leaflets 5 to 7, alternate, membranous, 
ovate-elliptic to elliptic, shortly and obtusely acuminate, the base 
rounded or sub-cuneate, slightly oblique ; main nerves 13 to 15 pairs, 
faint ; upper surface glabrous, shining ; the lower dull, sparsely scaly ; 
main nerves 13 to 16 pairs, oblique, slightly prominent below; length 4 
to 6 in., breadth 2 to 3 in., petiolule '25 to '35 in. Panicles crowded 
towards the ends of the branches, axillary, solitary, 2 to 3 in. long, 
many-flowered. Flowers broadly ovoid, truncate, ‘15 in. long, on pedicels 
shorter than themselves. Calyx cupular, puberulous and scaly outside, 
the mouth with 5 pointed minute erect teeth. Petals 5, larger than the 
calyx, elliptic, slightly obovate, the apex blunt and incurved, puberulous 
externally, the edges membranous and glabrous. Staminal tube ovoid- 
globose, the apex sub-truncate, with 4 obscure broad teeth ; anthers 8 
or 9, narrowly elliptic, sessile, inserted at the base of the tube, included. 
Ovary small, depressed, 3-angled, densely tawny-tomentose; stigma

Kurz described his Amoora dysoxyloides on scanty specimens col¬ 
lected by Sir Dietrich Brandis in Burma. I have carefully dissected 
flowers from these and I find they are those of an Aglaia, and belong 
to A. andamanica, Hiern.
