‘This is supposed to be the same as a plant cultivated in the Saharanpur 
Bot. Garden under the erroneous name of “A. Jztilli.” A plant 
reported to be naturalized in Burma seems to be very near to this, 
and is perhaps allied to A. Keratto, Miller. No information regarding 
the fibre is available, nor is the native country known.—Leaves 
deep-green with a glaucous bloom ; marginal prickles minute, sharp, 
ruby-coloured when young, pointing both upwards and downwards ; 
terminal spine brown, subulate.
