Abbildung: Tafel XXXV, Fig. 1—6. 
Frutex elatior vel fere arbuscula parva, omnino glabra, ramis regulariter divaricatis, subverticillatis, 
dense foliatis; folia dense disticha (ramuli hanc ob causam folium elongato-pinnatum simulantes), plana, char- 
tacea, sessilia, late oblonga sed aequilata (nec angustata), apice deltoideo obtusiuscula, basi haud angustata 
cordata et ramulos auriculis obtusis subamplectentia, circa 3.6—5.8 cm longa et 1—1.5 cm lata, integerrima, 
supra vix nitida, subtus pallidiora, glaberrima, tantum subtilissime (sed distincte) punctata, penninervia 
sed nervis tenuissimis; racemit umbelliformes circiter 3—8-flori, axillares, breviter vel brevissime peduncu- 
lati; flores semper tetrameri, parvi, longe pedicellati, bracteis subscariosis, ovatis vel ovato-lanceolatis, 
obtusiusculis suffulti; pedicelli filiformes, 4—8 mm longi; alabastra ovato-pyramidalia, subacuminata ; 
sepata libera nisi ima basi brevissime coalita, angusta, lanceolata, vix acuta, circa 2 mm vel paulo ultra longa 
et longitudine triplo angustiora, glabra; petala late ovata, dextrorsum sese tegentia, basi breviter (vix ad 
0.7 mm) connata, glabra, marginibus inflexa, acuta; stamina 4, fere sessilia, 1. e. filamentis complanato- 
dilatatis brevissimis, vix 0.3 mm longis, corollae basi insertis; antherae ipsae circa 1.75 mm longae, e basi 
latiore paulisper angustatae, apice insensim connectivo producto, deltoideo-lanceolato breviter acuminatae, 
tota longitudine rimis 2 introrsum dehiscentes; ovarium ovatum, glabrum, in stylum e basi paulo crassiore 
attenuatum, filiformem, circa 2 mm longum, stigmate minuto, punctiformi terminatum abeuns; placenta 
uniseriatim pauciovulata; fructus ignoti.

Frutex foliatione pulchra insignis, sed floribus inconspicuis praeditus; a Tetrardisiae specie adhuc 
nota unica, javanensi (7. denticulata [BLUME] Mxz) toto coelo diversus, sed characteribus genericis plurimis, 
praesertim floribus regulariter tetrameris, corolla breviter sympetala, lobis dextrorsum tegentibus, antheris, 
ovario paucigemmulato optime convenit et hance ob causam mihi vix generice separandus videtur, quamvis 
habitus omnino alienus.
