Has. Nubia (Kotschy, No. 205). Northern Guzerat and Seinde. 
No. 29. 
Seeds broad, 4 lines by 2, with a very sharp thin margin, turned up 
80 as to make the seeds cupped, like clotted blood in a bleeding-basin. — 
Fruit like a cherry in shape and colour. I think Fenzl’s specific name 
should be passed over, because it points to a structure not peculiar to 
the species. If, however, his name had been published in a book with 
a diagnosis, this change could not have been allowed; but any one is 
at liberty to reject the inedited names of Hochstetter, Steudel, and 
others, which are merely printed on labels, because they are unpub- 
lished, and not in a shape which renders them accessible to the student. 
At the same time it is courtesy to adopt them when applicable.
