MadiomananaTAJ 179(holo-, NY!; iso-, G, K, MO, P!, TEF, WAG).  DISTRIBUTION AND ECOLOGY. — To date,  Canarium ampasindavae, sp. nov.is known only from the typecollection from the Sambirano region, in the Bongomirahavavy Mountains, where there are areas of subhumid forest within the relatively dry northwestern part of the country. It is a relatively small tree found in evergreen forest on high hills. Fruiting in December.  DESCRIPTION Trees, reproductive size 15 m × 40 cmdiam. Buttresses present. Leaves c. 47.4 cmlong, c.7-jugate; petiole 10.4-13.5 cmlong, petiole and rachis with sparse to scattered fine erect bristles to 0.05 mmlong, glabrescent; stipules caducous, 8-15 mmfrom petiole insertion, scar 3.5-4 mmlong; basal petiolules c. 16 mmlong, the other laterals 10-16 mmlong, terminal one c. 31 mmlong, not canaliculate, lateral pulvinuli evident; basal leaflets 7.5-9.5 × 3.3-3.9 cm, (oblong-)ovate, other laterals 9.7-14.3 × 4.2-4.4 cm, oblong-lanceolate to ovate, terminal leaflet c.12.4 × 4.9 cm, elliptic; leaflet apex narrowly long-acuminate, the acu - men 9-17 mmlong; lateral leaflet base asymmetrical, acroscopic side truncate to slightly cordate, the basiscopic side obtuse; margin revolute, especially at base; leaflets coriaceous, drying brownish green below, grayish green above; secondary venation framework weakly festooned-brochidodromous; secondaries in 10-13 pairs, insertion on midvein decurrent, secondary veins nearly straight, angle subperpendicular, increasing toward base, spacing irregular; usually 1 perpendicular epimedial tertiary per pair of secondaries, sometimes basiflexed; intercostal tertiaries mixed alternate-percurrent and irregular-reticulate, some admedial branching; on abaxial side all venation prominent, on adaxial side the midvein prominulous but sunk in a groove, rest of venation prominulous, both surfaces glabrous. Flowers unknown. Infructescence (incomplete) at least 7.5 cmlong × 5 mmdiam, secondary axes at least 2.1 cmlong, axes with dense flexuous golden to whitish hairs to 0.2 mmlong; fruiting pedicel 3.5-4 × 4-5 mm, cylindrical, calyx 8-9 mmlong, the lobes not distinct. Fruits 4.5-4.9 × 2.1-2.4 cm, narrowly ovoid, apex acute, base obtuse, surface finely and densely lenticellate, subglabrous, mesocarp relatively thin.  FIG. 1. — Distributions of  Canarium ampasindavaeDaly, Raharim. & Federman, sp. nov.,  C. arcuatumDaly, Raharim. & Federman, sp. nov.,  C. boiviniiEngl.,  C. findensDaly,Raharim.& Federman, sp. nov.,  C. galokenseDaly,Raharim.& Federman, sp. nov.,  C. laxiflorumDaly, Raharim. & Federman, sp. nov.,  C. madagascarienseEngl.,  C. manongarivumDaly, Raharim. & Federman, sp. nov.,  C. multinervisDaly, Raharim. & Federman, sp. nov.,  C. obovatumDaly, Raha- rim. & Federman, sp. nov.,  C. pallidumDaly, Raharim. & Federman, sp. nov.,  C. subtilisDaly, Raharim. & Federman, sp. nov., and  C. velutinifoliumDaly, Raharim. & Federman, sp. nov.  FIG. 2. —  Canarium ampasindavaeDaly, Raharim. & Federman, sp. nov.: A, leaf, with detail of leaflet ( A’) and of petiole with stipular scar ( A’’); B, infructescence, with detail of fruit surface ( B’).
