2 in. wide; petioles ’5 in- long or less, glabrous. Corymb glabrous,

var. minor Ridl., a prostrate creeper; leaves 1 in. long. Hab. 
Pahang, Pekan; on sand-hills. Distrib. Mergui, Ceylon. 
I am doubtful if Rumphius’ Gumira litorea is this, as he describes it as 
a tree, but I think Burman’s Cornutia corymbosa of Ceylon is intended for 
this plant—though the Ceylon forms differ somewhat from ours—which is 
not often even a moderately tall shrub, and never a tree. P. serraHfoha 
Linn, and P. spinosa Roxb., given as synonyms by Gamble, are quite different 
plants.

Hab . Rare, Malacca, Pulau Jawa on upper limits of mangroves,

I think this plant is distinct from P. integrifolia Linn., but more specimens 
are required.
