VI. Cascarilla leonado obscura (dark tawny). 
A bark of an unknown species very commonly met with in 
the Huanuco. It has obtained the name of leonado obscura from 
its greyish-brown colour beth on the epidermis and the internal 
parts; the colour is darker within; it approaches in some 
characters to the Pagiza; but it has a strong disagreeable taste, 
which with the colour is sufficient to distinguish it from the 
Pagiza. It grows on the mountains of the Huamalies and of the 
Panatahuas; is regarded as a Quinquina of middling quality, 
and is not described by M. Ruiz. | 
_ VII. Cascarilla melada (honey-coloured). — 
A species also unknown, and not described by M. Ruiz. Its 
bark is pretty thick, and well rolled ; its external surface rough, 
of a reddish grey, cut in transversal and very deep. slips, and 
clothed with an epidermis of half a line or nearly in thickness, 
which separates easily ; its internal surface is rough, of a yellow 
red and unequal tint ; it is strongly bitter, styptic, and very dis- 
agreeable when masticated. — 
VIII. Casearilla fulva. | 
It is said that this species was discovered by M. Fafalla, but 
the specimens and description have not yet arrived. Its bark is 
one of those which occur most commonly in the Huanuco. 
Barks well rolled, and bearing much resemblance to those of 
the Cascarilla amarilla of Loxa in colour and thickness; but they 
are easily distinguished and recognised, as being very conisder- 
ably styptic, and as having a very faint bitterness and smell : 
there is nothing disagreeable in their taste. _M. Ruiz places this 
species among the middling Quinquinas.
