ovoideae purpureae. Flores 2 sessiles; bracteolae ca. 1 mm longae
cete-rum ut in cf; sepala 1 mm longa ovata subacuta; stylus 5 mm longus;
Stigmata purpurea.

E. Esterhuysen, 21.10.1945, n. 12.116 (herb. Lund).
Cliffortia fasciculata belongs to the sect. C.ostatae H. Weim. and
comes morphologically rather close to C. marginata Eckl. et Zeyh.
Among other features the species differs from the latter type by the
leaves being thick and almost semiterete and by Ihe number of the
stamens (in C. fasciculata 6, in C. marginata 12).
Cliffortia apiculata H. Weimarck, spec. nova.
Spec. orig.: Leighton n. 793 in herb. Lund.
Icon.: Fig. nostrae 7, 8.
Frutex valde ramosus; rami et raniuli juniores dense fulvo-pilosi;
internodia 5—15(—20) mm longa; ramuli abbreviati 2—5 vel raro
10 mm longi dense foliati. Folia 3-foliolata; vagina amplectens 1,5—2
mm longa basi pilosa ceterum glabra; stipulae 3—4 mm longae

Cliffortia apiculata resembles externally certain forms of C.
polij-gonifolia rather niucli hut is readily distinguished from the latter
species by the glabrous leaves. The type of the flowers and Ihe fruits is
however systematicallv möre significant. According to the features in
question C. apiculata obtains its natural place within the sect. C.ostatae
H. Weim. and belong to the vicinity of C. glauca H. Weim.
