68 MR. BENTHAM’S SYNOPSIS OF LEGNOTIDE JE, 
and sometimes on the same specimen. The leaves are generally 
quite entire; occasionally some may be found with a few very 
small teeth towards the extremity, but never toothed all round, as 
in the О. lanceafolia. I have therefore no hesitation in con- 
sidering this as the C. integerrima, DC., to which I would refer | 
the C. zeylanica, corymbosa and sinensis of Arnott, C. timorensis, 
Bl., C. octopetala, F. Muell. (the parts of the flower are often in 
eights in the Indian specimens), and Pootia cereopsifolia, Miq. 
C. lancezfolia, Roxb., is only known to me from specimens 
from the Calcutta Garden and one or two from Sylhet. It 
appears well distinguished by the leaves being regularly serrulate 
all round, and, as far as I have seen, by а more pear-shaped fruit, 
which appears to ripen generally more than one seed. The leaves 
are usually considerably broader than those figured by Wight 
from Roxburgh’s drawing. The C. confinis, Bl, is evidently 
closely allied to this species, if not identical with it. C. sym- 
metria, Bl., appears to be a form of C. integerrima with the leaves 
slightly toothed at the top. 
C. lucida, Roxb., appears to me to be in some respects а made- 
up species, resulting perhaps in a confusion between C. integerrima 
and C. lanceefolia. The specimens originally sent from the Cal- 
cutta Garden as C. lucida belong to the broader-leaved forms of 
C. lanceafolia, although I have not seen апу quite so broad as 
those figured in Roxburgh's ‘ Coromandel Plants’ and in Wight’s 
‘Icones.’ Both these figures are taken from Roxburgh's drawings, 
the work probably of a native artist ; and, as is so frequently the 
case, more or less made up, as is evidenced by the venation of the 
leaves, so different from that of any Carallia. I should there- 
fore be disposed either entirely to reject O. lucida, or to consider - 
it merely as an ill-represented variety of C. lanceafolia. 
C celebica, Bl., judging from Borneo specimens which agree 
with his description, is a distinct species with looser inflorescence, 
much larger flowers, &c. 
C. cuspidata, Bl., and C. multiflora, Bl., both from Borneo, but 
unknown to me, appear from his description to be both of them 
good species. 
Baraldeia, Dup. Thou., is considered by R. Brown, and after him 
by other botanists, as a species of Carallia; Itis unknown to me: 
the Hookerian herbarium, although now rich in Madagascar plants, 
— as far as I can find, no Legnotideous Species from that
