It seems rather strange that this species of Simaba, which 
is not unéommon on the ascent of the Corcovado, producing 
its large panicles of highly odoriferous yellow flowers in the 
months of August and September, should not be noticed in 
any of the numerous works which have been published on Bra- 
_Zilian botany. ^ Yet, after considerable research, I have been 
| obliged to come to this conclusion, and to describe it as a 
| new species.
