A working clavis would be as follows : —
Stems pubescent and with spreading hairs,
- Leaves dark leaden-green, racemes dense, calyx segments acuminate, strongly ciliate A. styracifolius DC.
- Leaves ordinary green, racemes lax, narrow, calyx segments subacute, with or without a few hairs . . A. heyneanus W. & A.
Stems glabrous except for an alternating line of oppressed ascending hairs,
- Racemes short, dense A. rugosus, DC.
- Racemes very elongate, lax, with distant fasicles of pedicillate
flowers A. ludens Wall.
It is necessary however to remark that with age both the vestiture of the first two species and the line of hairs of the last two are deciduous.
