[...] The flowers of Sageraea are small and the sepals and petals are very concave ; and in these respects as well in the comparative fewness of the seeds in their ripe carpels they diverge from those of typical Uvariaa. [...] Leaves coriaceous oblong-lanceolate or oblo.nceolate apiculate; the base slightly narrowed minutely cordate : both sufaces rather dull ; the upper glabrous except the minutely tomentose midrib ; the lower darker pubernlous on the midrib and 8 to 10 pairs of rather prominent spreading main nerves ; length 4.5 to 7-5 in. [...] long from the older branches ; minutely rufous-tomentose bractoate in the upper half ; the bracts numerous ovate to rotund concave. [...] Leaves membranous broadly oblanceolate shortly and rather obtusely acuminate narrowed below the middle to the rounded base; both surfaces finely reticulate the upper dull when dry glabrous ; the midrib minutely pubescent ; lower surface shining glabrous except the sparsely puberulous midrib ; main nerves 8 to 9 pairs oblique forming double arches inside the margin impressed on the upper
