Nomenclatural Notes
Status: nom. inval. provisional name. Protologue: Mr. Ridley's plant from Singapore differs very considerably from the Perak and Malacca one. The pods are described as hairy in the field note ; they are so in the specimens themselves, but those at Calcutta are not quite ripe. If the pods prove to be quite persistently velvety it will probably be necessary to treat the plant as a distinct species to be named O. Ridleyi.
Remarks
Prain is the author of the treatment of the family Leguminosae (see p. 21)
