608 DR. M. T. MASTERS: GENERAL VIEW 
the Pinus maritima of Lambert, vol. ii. t-10. The flat-scaled 
variety is probably the same as that called var. 8. minor by Lange. 
To this may be referred Spanish specimens from Huter, n. 889 |, 
Syrian specimens from Kotschy, 440!, and others, Greek repre- 
sentatives trom Heldreich, 1300!, ete. 
Among the forms with prominent apophyses are specimens 
from Spain, Bourgeau, 884!, Persia, Greece, Dalmatia, Mace- 
donia, Provence, Sicily, Morocco, and elsewhere. Specimens 
from Afghanistan, taken from cultivated trees by the late 
Dr. Aitchison and referred to this species, differ in their subses- 
sile ascending cones. In the Paris herbarium are specimens of 
P. halepensis collected in Valencia by Bourgeau, without number, 
but to which the name var. macrocarpa is attached. The cones 
measure 4 inches in length. From Heldreich n. 1800 there 
are also specimens with large cones and flat apophyses, collected 
in Greece. For some remarks on the tree figured by Miller, 
Dictionary, 1760, t. 208, as the Aleppo Pine, see under P. Laricio, 
which it most resembles in form of cone and apophysis, although 
it may be the form mentioned by Tenore as P. halepensis, var. 
B. squamis convexis, to which the P. maritima of Lambert has 
been, in part, referred. Miller’s statement in the text refers 
evidently to P. halepensis, but it is possible that some permu- 
tation of labels may have taken place, and that the illustration 
and the text do not apply to the same species. 
P.h. Pithyusa, P. h. syriaca, P. h. abchasica, and P. persica 
are referred to this species as varieties. 
From the late Baron von Mueller I received specimens from 
trees cultivated in S. Australia with androgynous catkins, the 
male flowers being at the base, the female flowers in clusters near 
the tips.

p- 47, and Flora Nap. v. p. 266, t. 200 (1835); Boissier, Flora 
Orient. v. p. 605. 
This tree is said to be a native of the forests of Central and 
South-Eastern Spain, the mountains of Calabria, the islands of 
Cyprus and Crete, the Caramanian Taurus, Syria, and Bithynia. 
Some of these localities are open to doubt, because the species 
has been confounded with P. halepensis and with P. Laricio, 
var. pyrenaica. The name pyrenaica was given to a Pine by 
Lapeyrouse, Hist. abrégée des plant. des Pyrénées, p. 146
