Pittosporum napaulense (DC.) Rehder & Wilson

Pittosporum napaulense var. rawalpindiense was described from Bhutan, N India, N Pakistan, and Sikkim, and was distinguished from var. napaulense by having leaf blades lanceolate, long acuminate at the apex, and capsules only 4-seeded. It seems to be only an extreme state of P. napaulense.
