Mafusi District, and on the outskirts and glens of Chirinda and Maruma. 
"The wood burns badly but splits easily, and is therefore a favourite with the 
natives for the doors and floors of their huts, but it is readily attacked by 
Bostryehide. Noted too in Inyamadzi Valley and on the ascent from the 
Виж to Mount Umtereni itself. In glens at Maruma just commencing to 
come into leaf on Sept. 13th. Occurs in dense scrub of Chikambogé Valley, 
and on Kurumadzi in dense bush, where I found some good-sized specimens 
without flowers or fruit. Occurs in Madanda forests and open bush near 
Beira. Flowers just out on Chirinda outskirts Oct. 10th, 1905. This is 
very different in appearance from the low flat-topped spreading type of 
A. fastigiata, whieh I had the opportunity of inspecting in Durban and 
Delagoa Bay. It grows up with a straight clean trunk or trunks to a height 
of 30 or 40 feet, but seldom attains any considerable girth. It is far less
