Trees, 5 - 8 (-20) m tall; branchlets pubescent or tomentellous, glabrescent in age. Leaves elliptic to oblong-elliptic or ovate to ovate-lanceolate, equilateral (acute, rounded to truncate) or inequilateral at base, cuspidate, caudate or acuminate at apex, 6 - 15 x 2.5 - 6 cm, chartaceous to coriaceous, sparsely hirsute on major nerves to glabrous above, tomentellous to sparsely pilose (at least on nerves) and more or less glaucous beneath; lateral nerves 4 - 8 pairs; petioles 2 - 6 mm long. Inflorescences unisexual or mixed. Male flowers: pedicels 8 - 12 mm long, glabrous; sepals obovate, 2 - 2.5 x 1.5 - 2 mm; anthers 3, ca 1.5 mm long. Female flowers: pedicels 1 - 2 x 0.7 - 1.2 mm; sepals broadly elliptic, suborbicular or obovate, 1 - 2 x 0.5 - 1.5 mm; ovary depressed, 1 - 2 mm in diam., 3 - 5 (- 6)-locular, tomentellous; styles 3 - 5 (- 6), variable, free and triangular to orbicular (0.7 - 1.5 mm long), in a ring or forming a cupular structure or subglobose or obconic (ca 1.5 x 1.5 mm) or discoid mass (ca 1 x 2 -2.5 mm) or connate and forming a buttonlike structure (ca 1 x 2.5 mm), with or without a basal column (up to 1 mm long). Fruits depressedsubglobose, 3 - 4 x 8 - 10 mm, 3 - 6-locular, prominently lobed with the lobes more or less deeply bilobulate, glabrous; pedicels 3 - 10 mm long.
