 stamens 8 to 10 inserted round a disk, style short, berry small, 

 1 to 3-seeded. 



2. MURRAYA. Like the last, but stamens 10 alternately 

 shorter, disk elongated, ovary narrowed into a long deciduous 

 style, berry 1 or 2-celled and seeded. 



3. ATALANTIA. Leaves alternate simple, stamens 6 to 8 

 inserted round a disk, style deciduous, stigma capitate, berry 

 roundish with thick rind.

6r. pentapliylla. An erect poor-looking smooth shrub, 

 leaflets 3 to 5 oblong, lanceolate slightly serrated, petioles 

 thick ; flowers in short panicles small, scarcely opening, 

 filaments flat, berry size of a pea, -flesh coloured. Kirmira, 



H, describes this as exceedingly variable, and as " one of the 

 commonest plants in India, if the shrubby and arboreous forms 

 are the same species." It is found with us, as a shrub only I 

 believe, in the Konkan and Ghauts, and not very common there I 

 should say.

M. Kcenigii (Bergera &. D.) A small tree, leaves very 

 strong smelling, leaflets many, ovate serrate shining, flowers 

 small in panicles, stigma capitate grooved, fruit in close clusters, 

 oval pointed, dark red, about an inch long. Kadu nim, 

 Kadu-pab, jhirang. 



The Ghauts. Very common at Matheran. 



H. makes the leaflets variable and the fruit black. 



*M. exotica (M. Paniculata, D.). Leaflets 3 to 8 smooth, very oblique 

 at the base, flowers rather large, sepals glandular, berry round or 

 ovoid, red. Pdndari, Kunti. Higher Ghauts and Eohe (D.). Matheran 

 Birdwood. A variety is found in gardens. 



Clausena is very like Murraya, but the leaflets uneven in number, 

 ovary stalked, and berry small. *0. Indica (Piptostylis, I. D.) leaflets 

 7 to 11, ovate oblique, flowers small in panicles, berry round, yellow. 

 *C. Wildenovii, very like this, but leaflets fewer, fruit size of a pea, 

 whitish green pellucid. Both are rare, and found in this Presidency 

 only on the S. Ghauts.
