Description
Summary:In the Brussels Herbarium two specimens are conserved from Roxburgh's<br />collection (Herb. Martii) representing flowering branches from<br />Sumatra, one label bears the additional annotation: Cayoo gadees of<br />Marsden, Sumatra 129; whether these are original Jack specimens, I am<br />not sure, but I accept them as the (lecto) type.<br />The specimen Hoiv 71851, identified by Allen as C. parthenoxylon, is<br />not that species, probably C. tonkinensis, whereas Chun 5708, identified<br />by her as C. camphora, var. glaucescens, belongs here.<br />The species C. ilicioides Chev. and C. tonkinensis Lee. are closely<br />related, but differ by their tomentum, leaf shape and fruit cup. The<br />type material being not available to me, I refrain from discussing these<br />two species here.<br />Specimens enumerated here represent a selection, the abundant<br />Malesian material is not enumerated.
