Vochisia (Vochy is the name of one of the species in Guiana). Vochysiaceae. Glabrous or tomentose usually resinous trees, frequently tall shrubs, occasionally grown in the warmhouse: lvs. decussately opposite or verticillate, usually leathery; stipules small, subulate: fls. rather large, yellow, odorous, in elongated composite racemes or panicles; pedicels 2-bracted; sepals 5, connate at base, lateral and anterior very short, posterior largest, usually spurred; petals 1-3, linear or spatulate, anterior commonly larger than the others; stamen 1, fertile; ovary 3-celled: caps. leathery or woody, 3-celled, loculicidally 3-valved.— About 60 species, natives of Brazil, Guiana, E. Peru, and Colombia. The spelling Vochysia is later.
V. ferruginea, Mart. (V. tomentosa, DC.). Tree, 25 ft. or more high: lvs. oval-oblong, long-acuminate, attenuate at base, glabrous above, ferrugineous-tomentose beneath: fls. in terminal racemes, which are loose and slightly nodding. Guiana.— V. guianensis, Aubl. Tree, 12 ft. or more high: lvs. obovate-oblong, shortly acuminate, glabrous on both surfaces: fls. in simple racemes, which are erect, terminal and dense-fld.; spur spreading. Guiana.
