Terminalia tomentella Kurz, J. Asiat. Soc. Bengal, Pt. 2, Nat. Hist. 42(2): 80. 1873; Myrobalanus tomentella (Kurz) Kuntze; T. argyrophylla King & Prain.

Branchlets and both surfaces of leaf blade appressed tawny villous or densely appressed silvery tomentose at least when young.

This variety is tentatively maintained, with Terminalia argyro phylla included, on account of its persistently hairy branchlets and leaf blades.

Secondary bamboo forests, sunny forest margins; below 500 to 1100 m. W Yunnan [Myanmar].
