6 . Now about Dillenia and Worm! a . There 
are two species concerning which I am not yet satisfied * 
(1,) Dillenia aurea Srru V/hat I take to be this species 
is a small tree common in open habitats in Kedah and 
Kelantan. Your specimens (s.n.) from the Kodiang - 
Singgora Road is this tree* I have a few sterile collec-

indeed D♦ aurea . Gan you help?

(2.) Wo rmi a t omen t e 1 la Ma . Our only collections 
under this cover are C*F* 22979 and Baker s.n*. Bands¬

52190 which you have just sent. Do you think 22979 and 
32190 are the same species and do you have any authentic 
specimen of Worm!a tomente11a for comparison? 
7. I shall have my notes ob Dilleniaceae 
typed and send you a copy so that you will have some

or additional information will be welcome. As we are 
going over to Kuantan for Xmas I’m afraid I shan’t get

it being Melia exce lsa Jack. I have never seen Jack’s 
Malayan Miscellanies - nor the reprinted work. If you 
can spare the latter sometime I should very much like 
to look through it. I must have passed that K*K* tree 
many a time but one never really sees things unless one 
knows there Is something Interesting to be seen*
