different. It does not seem to come under any of the sections pro¬ 
posed by Pax & K. Hoffm. in their Pdanzenreich Monograph, and 
until 9 flowers come to hand its position in the genus must remain 
doubtful. 
Mallotus cochinciiinensis Lour. Sogere, 1750 ft., 190. 
Homalaxthus brachystachys Pax & K. Hoffm. ex descript. 
Sogere, 2000 ft., 871. Small tree. There are no <$ dowers; hence 
the determination is somewhat doubtful.

Ficus subulata Bl. Sogere, 1750-2500 ft., GO, 62, 179, 223, 
264, 283, 833. Stipules short (about 2 cm. long) like those \of 
F. Decaisneana Miq., but most of the subulata specimens in the 
London herbaria have short stipules.

Sogere, 3000 ft., 106. A tree 35 feet high. Figs bright orange. 
Differs from F. pisifera Wall, in the smaller very scabrous leaves 
not gradually narrowed in the lower half, and with closer and more 
prominent reticulation upon the lower face, and the bright orange dgs, 
the $ dowers with a markedly lateral not almost terminal style. It 
is because of this presumed affinity that the plant, in the absence of 
<3 and gall dowers, is placed provisionally in this section.
