and the nut oblong and deeply 5-grooved : this last character is however not 
supported by Geertner’s figure, while his M. Chebula above referred to appears 
to have the nut deeply 5-furrowed. We are inclined to place less depend- 
ence on the grooves of the nut than on the shape of the fruit itself, if indeed 
both are not, along with the following, varieties of the same plant.

lanceolate, acuminated, when young clothed with much ferruginous hair:

“ The fruit is so much like the Chebula myrabolans, as scarcely to be dis- 
tinguished from it, and they possess the same sensible qualities. "—Rox».

wings.—Pentaptera, Roxb. 
t 969. (6) T. Berryi (W. & A.:) bark smooth: branches drooping: leaves 
nearly opposite, from lanceolate to linear-oblong, glabrous, with two sessile 
glands on the margins of the apex of the short petiole at its junction with the 
leaf: spikes terminal, somewhat panicled.—Pentaptera angustifolia, Roab. fl. 
Ind. 2. p. 437. Balla-ghaut mountains ; Dr A. Berry. 
We do not observe this in Wallich’s List, although Dr Roxburgh states 
that it bears flowers and fruit in the Calcutta Botanic Garden. The glands 
from being on the petiole, not on the under side of the leaf, are perceptible 
when viewed on either surface: and by this character it is said to differ from 
T. ( Pent.) Arjuna, Roxb., which it most resembles. 
970. (7) T. crenulata (W. & A.:) bark rugose: leaves nearly opposite, 
oblong, acute, crenulated, glabrous, with 1 or 2 cyathiform glands on the 
midrib on the under side far above the base.—Pentaptera crenulata, Roxb. 
Jl. Ind. 2. p. 488.— Coromandel ; Dr A. Berry. ep 
~ We suspect this not to be at all distinct from 7’. glabra. Dr Wallich does 
not refer to it in his List. : 
971. (8) T. glabra (W. & A.:) bark smooth: leaves nearly opposite, nar- 
row oblong, from subcordate to slightly cuneate at the base, obtuse or acute at 
the apex, entire or crenulated, glabrous on both sides, often reddish beneath, 
with some nearly sessile umbilicated glands towards the base of the midrib.

Dr Wallich suspects this to be a variety of the last, and indeed there 
is no difference of any consequence between them, and the following ®*

Our specimens from Dr Wallich (Wall. L, n. 3978, g) have the leaves — 
shaggy beneath, yet De Candolle, Roth, and even Roxburgh, attribute gon 
only pubescent leaves. We have therefore, along with Dr Wallich, an L
