remarks, from all the other Genera of the Order. At this 

 time, there is only one tree in Jamaica, near Stoney Hill, 

 whence our specimens were taken, unless the report be cor- 

 rect, that a second exists at St. Thomas in the East. 



From the Genus Monodora is to be excluded the M. 

 microcarpa, Anona microcarpa of Jacquin (Fragm. Bot. 

 t. 44. f. 7), established by that author from the fruit of 

 Mr. Brown's Cargillia australis, of the family of Ebena- 

 nace^e ; (See Brown's Bot. of Congo, p. 56) so that the 

 Monodora Myristica is the only known species of the 

 Genus.
