CORYLUS. Seven species, widely distributed over the 
North temperate regions, are included hereunder. 
The larvee of certain moths are sometimes very prevalent 
on the foliage of these trees or bushes, and unless checked 
work serious damage by devouring the leaves and the 
young tender shoots. The caterpillar most in evidence is 
the larva of the Winter Moth (Cheimatobia brumata), 
which should be ousted by the use of Paris Green (loz. to 
twenty gallons of water). The liquid should be constantly 
agitated while spraying with this powerful poison. 
Cc. humilis (dwarf). A synonym of C. americana. 
The best of the Cob Nuts are the following : 
Atlas Cob. Nuts of very large size, shells thick, and kernel of 
fair quality. Worth growing for its enormous, large nuts, which 
are freely produced. 
Daviana. Nut of medium size, shell very thin and very brown in 
colour, with a kernel of fine flavour. A good grower and free- 
bearer. 
Duke of Edinburgh. Nut large, shell thick, kernel of high 
flavour. A variety of great promise. 
Merveille de Bollwyller. Nut very large, with thick shell, 
nearly covered by the husks. Flavour excellent. A vigorous 
and great bearer. 
Other good varieties are: BRUNSwick Emprror, Louis 
BERGER, PRIZE EXHIBITION CoB, and PEARSON’s PROLIFIO. 
Varieties. 
In Filberts, the following varieties, in addition to those 
already given in Vol. I., may be recommended : 
Prolific. Nuts of medium size, covered with a pretty mossy 
husk, in very large bunches; flavour excellent. A very orna- 
mental variety. 
True Kentish. Nuts of medium size. Undoubtedly the finest- 
epaned Filbert ; but the tree is somewhat tender, and not a free 
earer.

to the disposition of the flowers). Syns. Chloidia, Corym- 
borchis, Hysteria, Macrostylis (of Breda), Rhynchanthera 
(of Blame), Orp. Orchidee. A genus embracing six or 
seven species of tall, leafy, stove, terrestrial Orchids,

allusion to the shape of the style). Syn. Corynitis. , ORD. 
Leguminose. A small genus (ee or four species) of stoye

vation.
