Alartaban, Cambodia and ril, Mav. 2. A. oWonga, Dvf-r (Sliorca }}errosa, Ivurz). TenaN- horim. Young shoots and If^av^^ on tlip nerves heupatli with scattered tufts of minute stellate hairs. 3.

Seeds without albumen, cotyledons thick, fleshy, concave, one enclosing the other, both bifid to the base. Radicle and petioles of cotyledons embedded in a groove between the lobes of the outer cotyledon, while the lignified pla- centa with the remains of dissepiments intrudes between the lobes of the inner, they are filled with stai'ch and oil, the former generally prevailing.
