xiii, c, 6 Swingle: Merillia, a new Rutaceous Genus 341 



nosum (Blanco) Swingle, it may be used as a stock upon which 

 to graft the commonly cultivated species of Citrus. Mr. Ridley 

 has called attention to the beauty of the wood of the katinga 

 and Mr. F. G. Penney secured enough of this wood in southern 

 Siam to make a much-admired set of furniture. The flowers are 

 very large and it is possible that this species would be worthy 

 of cultivation as an ornamental plant. At any rate it deserves 

 a place in every tropical and subtropical botanic garden and 

 arboretum.
