1. Murraya exotica; foliolis cuneato-oblongis obtusis coriaceis, pedunculis multifloris

This must not be confounded with the M. exotica of some Botanists, particularly of Roxburgh, Flora 

 Indica, v. 2. p. 374., and n. 48 of his drawings, in the East India Company's Museum, and apparently of 

 Dr. Wallich's List, n. 6368, which appears to be the Chalcas paniculata of Loureiro, the Murraya pani- 

 culata of Smith's Herbarium, and Rumphius' Herb. Amb. 5. t. 17, a species which is too closely allied to 

 M. Sumatrana. Roxb. Hort. Bengb. p. 32, and Fl. Ind. v. 2. p. 375. With this last, is identical M. pani- 

 culata, Jack, and Hook. Exot. Fl. t. 79; it has the flowers terminal, and not nearly so panicled, if indeed 

 they can be said to be so at all, as in the other species, hence, as Jack observed, the name given by him 

 ought to be changed to M. Sumatrana, even although he had not given it upon the supposition that his 

 and Loureiro's plants were the same. The true M. paniculata may be characterised, " foliis ovatis, floribus 

 paniculatis;" while M. Sumatrana is distinguished shortly by '< foliis ovatis acuminatis, floribus terminali- 

 bus subsolitariis." 



1. Glycosmis citrifolia; foliolis 4-5-alternis oblongo-lanceolatis basi inajqualibus utrinque

 sphajroideisobliquis. Lindl. in Hort. Soc. Trans, v. 6. p. 72.— Limonia citrifolia. Willd.

 De Cand. Prodr. v. I. p. 536. 



The genus Glycosmis is perhaps only distinguishable from Limonia by the structure of the fruit. In 

 Limonia, the pericarp is tough, and resembling the rind of an orange, and the seeds are covered with pulp. 

 In Glycosmis, the pericarp is fleshy, like the eatable parts of a cherry, and the seeds are destitute of pulp. 

 -We possess Clansena excavata, Burm., and Atalantia monophylla,T>C, of Ms Order, from near Macao, 

 gathered by Mr. Millett.
