Olax pentandra Sleumer [family OLACACEAE]

DISTR. T8 not known elsewhere
Since going to press a fruiting specimen of Olax, Migeod 1007, has been found among the indeterminate material at the British Museum (Natural History). This provides evidence that O. pentandra Sleumer, based on Schlieben 5205 (B, holo.!, BM, iso.!) is specifically distinct from O. dissitiflora. It may be distinguished by the subsessile leaves, shorter pedicels (3–4 mm., not 6–10 mm. long) and the inflated calyx, which completely encloses the fruit and is up to 1.8 cm. long (not almost enclosing fruit and up to 9 mm. long); the stomatal pattern is also quite different. It seems in fact to have more affinity with certain W. African species, such as O. mannii Oliv.

Petiole 2–8 mm. long; leaf-blade glabrous, coriaceous, dark green when mature, lanceolate to elliptic, 2.5–6 cm. long, 0.8–2.5 cm. wide, acuminate to obtuse, cuneate to ± rounded at the base; midrib prominent beneath, impressed above; secondary veins inconspicuous. Flowers white, axillary, solitary or in short racemes; buds clavate, 5–7 mm. long; pedicels up to 1 cm. long. Calyx cupuliform, entire, papery, accrescent. Petals 5, slightly hooded at the apex, 6–8 mm. long, 0.8–1.2 mm. wide, recurved when mature. Fertile stamens 3(–4); anthers 1.2–1.8 mm. long. Staminodes 5, opposite the petals; filaments adnate to the petals; anther-thecae 1.5–2.5 mm. long, more elongated than fertile thecae. Ovary 3-partite at base, unilocular at apex; style up to 4 mm. long; stigma 3-lobed, capitate. Fruit an obovoid to ellipsoidal drupe, 7–9 mm. long, partially enclosed by calyx when young, and almost completely so when mature, reddish, bearing remains of persistent style. Fig. 3/9–12.

Leaf-lamina dull deep green, 1·5–6 × 0·5–2·5 cm., elliptic-lanceolate to ovate, obtuse or acuminate and usually mucronulate at the apex, cuneate or rounded at the base, decurrent into the petiole; midrib impressed above, somewhat prominent below; venation inconspicuous, widely reticulate; petiole 3–8 mm. long. Flowers axillary, solitary, or in short axillary racemes, sweet-scented; buds broadly clavate, 5–7 mm. long. Calyx membranous, truncate, with margin somewhat undulate. Petals 5, white, 6–8 x 0·8–1·2 mm., valvate, shortly cucullate at the apex. Fertile stamens 3–4; filaments adnate to the petals; anthers 1·2–1·6 × 0·6–0·8 mm.; staminodes 5; filaments similar to those of the fertile stamens; anthers 1·5–2·5 mm. long, divaricate; ovary c. 1·2 × 1·4 mm.; style up to 4 mm. long, cylindric; stigma capitate, 3–4-lobed.
