Conif. 157. 1854 P. Khasiana Griffith, Notul. Pl. Asiat. Iv. 18; Icon. Pl. Asiat. Tt. 367, 368. 1868 P. Kasya Royle ex Parlatore in DC. Prodr. Xvi-2, 390. Spring-shoots uninodal, glabrous. Leaves from 12 to 24 cm. Long, infascicles of 3, rarely of 2, very slender; resin-ducts external, rarelywith a medial duct. Conelets mucronate. Cones from 5 to 10 cm. Long, ovate-conic, symmetrical or oblique, tenaciously persistent; apophyseslustrous, nut-brown, convex or elevated along a transverse keel, th...eposterior scales of some cones larger and more prominent than theanterior scales, the mucro usually deciduous. A species of the Philippines and of northern Burmah. In both countries it is locally exploited for wood and resin. It differs from the common form of P. Sinensis by its much longer leaves, and from its var. Yunnanensis, which it more resembles, by its much more slender and pliant leaves. Moreover its cone, so far as I can learn, is not yellow at maturity, but brown.
