I Wate, 3-4 in,, pale beneath, not abruptly acuminate as in S.] mangifera and 

 , acuminata', nerres free, arching. Flowers solitary or subsolitary on the branches, 

 long pedicelled, ^ in, diam., white. Calyx lobes acute. -'Petals elliptic, subacute. 

 Filamenis short, subulate. Bisk annular, 10-lobed. Ovary 5-celled with 5 short 

 erect styles. Drujpe l\ in. long, rounded at the top, yellow. Stone 5-celled, quite 

 small. — I know this plant only through Koxburgh's description and excellent drawing, 

 which represents a true Spondias in the structure of flower, fruit and embryo ; but 

 the arched-nerved leaves which he describes as 'gash-serrate' but figures as obtusely 

 serrate), and the subsolitary flowers on the branches with i^eduncles f in. long, are 

 quite unlike any Spondias I know.
