Content
Description
Tree up to 20(-30) m tall.
internal hairs minute, few to abundant or absent.
Leaves (sub)opposite or spirally arranged, those of pairs usually unequal;
stipules semi-amplexicaul to lateral, 0.5-1 or 1-2 cm long, often subsubulate, glabrous or appressed-puberulous, caducous, on twig apices often tufts of (sub)persistent stipules.
Distribution
Admiralty Islands present, Ambon present, Aru Islands present, Asia-Tropical: Maluku (Maluku present); New Guinea present; Sulawesi (Sulawesi present), Australasia: Queensland (Queensland present), Buru present, Ceram present, From Malesia extending to Australia present, Halmahera present, Morotai present, Sangi Islands present, Solomon Islands present, Talaud Islands present, Tanimbar Islands present, Tegua present, Vanuatu present
From Malesia extending to Australia (Queensland), the Solomon Islands, Micronesia (Palau: Yap), and Vanuatu (Tegua); in Malesia: Celebes (incl. Sangi Islands), Moluccas (Talaud Islands, Morotai, Halmahera, Buru, Ceram, Ambon, Tanimbar Islands, Aru Islands), New Guinea (incl. Admiralty Islands).
Notes
4A collection from Yap (referred to this species by Corner 1965) needs to be complemented with additional material to confirm its identity.
5Waxy glands in the axils of other lateral veins than the basal ones often occur in material from the Solomon Islands, but not in that from New Guinea.
2Material (recognized by Corner as var. pubescens) in which the short rigid hairs are mixed with much thinner hairs and the stipules are (usually) puberulous is found almost throughout the range of the species.
3In New Guinea, the stipules are usually up to 1 cm long, whereas mostly 1-2 cm long in the Moluccas and the Solomon Islands.
1The species can easily be recognized by the clear differences in surface of the middle and both the basal and upper part of the petiole.
