Habit. Ad ripas fluminura in Borneo inter austrum et orientem site. A. fulvinervi valde affin is, ab eo universe foliolis
longius obtuse acuminatis magisque grosse serratis atque floribus poîygamo-dioecis brevius pedicellatis differt. An forte
cum Omitrophe serratâ Roxb. congrueret? At rarissime ejus petala sunt retusa, stamina vero inferne pubescentia, quod
cum descriptione ejus stirpis auctoribus V. V. Cl. Wight et Arnott non convenit. Verbo memorandoe sunt duæ
Varietates ex Borneo, quarum prior maximam proe se fert affinitatem cum A. fulvinervi in Javâ créscente.
