 No. 144. 



Schimper hatte die Meinung, 

 daß die Pflanze mit Imbricaria 

 maxima Poir. (von den Maskarenen) 

 identisch sei. Unter diesem irrigen 

 Namen ist sie auch anatomisch von 

 M. Fabricius in seiner Dissertation 

 (Beihefte Botan. Centralblatt, Bd. XII 

 [1902] p. 306) beschrieben. 



Hemsley identifizierte das 

 Exemplar zweifellos mit /. Sechel- 

 larum, schreibt aber am 20. Ja- 

 nuar 1903 an Schenck: „But inas- 

 much as the flowers depicted in 

 Hooker's Icones were from a dif- 

 ferent source from the fruit, some 

 uncertainty exists still about both 

 species."

Mähe: „Bois de natte". Mount Sebert; „found growing on Summit of Mt Sebert. 1800 ft 

 There is a number of stunted trees on this mountain many of them only 2 or 3 feet in height — 

 but bearing fruit and flowers. All the flowers I found seemed to be dried up, perhaps on 

 aecount of the very dry weather \ve have been having. All except one, had lost the „crown" 

 of blades carrying the anthers. My sketch of flower is probably not quite correct, and will 

 have to be verified". 16. Juni 1901, Thomasset No. 37.
