Chevalier has shown that the source of the best cola 
nuts of commerce is Cola nitida (Vent.) A. Chev., a na- 
tive of the Ivory Coast and Liberia now widely cultivated 
from Sierra Leone to the Gaboon. This species has been 
passing in the literature as Cola acuminata (Beauv. ) 
Schott & Endl. The true C. acuminata is a different spe- 
cies, more widely distributed in tropical West Africa, 
but yielding inferior nuts.
