Previous to having seen the pericarpium of this plant, 

 an incomplete description and drawing were sent to 

 the Honourable the Court of Directors, under the name 

 Aitonia spitiosa The discovery of the seed vessel, toge- 

 ther with its structure, &,c. convinces me it cannot be- 

 long to that genus, and seems to associate best with Li- 

 monia, Murraya, and Triphasia, and no doubt belongs 

 to the seed, and divisions of Jussieu's natural order Au- 

 rantia.
