Names
BAISSEA multifloraStapf Var. β caudiloba [family APOCYNACEAE]
BAISSEA caudilobaStapf [family APOCYNACEAE], in Journ. Linn. Soc. xxx. 90; Hua in Bull. Soc. Linn. Paris, 2 sér. i. 10.
Information
Leaves slightly larger, thinner and more acuminate than in the type, quite glabrous except in the nerve-axils. Anthers and style very sparingly hairy.
Distribution
Sierra Leone Upper Guinea near Ninia, Talla Hills, Scott-Elliot, 4807!
Notes
Var. caudiloba is perhaps only a particularly glabrous state of B. multiflora. The other extreme is represented by Hua's B. Heudelotii (Bull. Soc. Linn. Paris, 2 sér. i. 9), although it is less marked off from the type. The leaves of the type specimen of B. multiflora are not glabrous, as described by A. De Candolle.
