King’s punctatus is based 011 Wray’s plant, which is not glabrous, but

(1) E. macrocarpa Ridl. 
Tree. Leaves ovate cuspidate, crenate, glabrous; nerves 9 
pairs, prominent beneath, 7 in. long, 3*5 in. wide; petioles 3 in. 
long. Fruit ovoid, globular, 2 in. through; pericarp woody, 
i-celled, i-seeded. Perak, on Gunong Keledang (Ridley). I was 
only able to get fruiting specimens of this plant, remarkable for 
having fruit very greatly larger than any other species. It appears, 
however, to be certainly an Elceocarpus.
