3-5sp. sem. osseis. Arbor eis spinosis,fol. pet. 

 alt. integris fl. fascic. pedunc. Two types 

 shuffled into Sideroxylurn and Bumelia, but of 

 another family the Sapotides by stamens not iso- 

 petal.

 drum L. W. P. &c fol. ellipt. planis, spinis 

 axil, validis small tree,berries black, N. Amer. 

 South New Jersey, discovered by Kalm, seen 

 by few Botanists, by myself without flowers, for 

 additions to the real G. Bumelia see my New 

 Flora 515 to 548 where I described 4 new Sp. 

 Bum. andulata^arachnoidea^ dcnticulata, ser- 

 rulata. 



167. Decateles lycioides Raf. Sid-erox. and 

 Bumelia do auct. fol. lanceol. obtusis undulatis, 

 spinis axil, brevis small tree 8 to 15 feet, not 

 in Canada as stated by L. from Carolina and 

 Florida : the synonymy of these 2 trees is much 

 blended and intermixt. 



168. XANTOLIS Raf. diff. Sideroxylum, bacca 

 disperma (non drupa 5sp.) Type X. tomento- 

 sa R. Sider. do Roxb. cor. t. 28. W. &,c. yellow 

 berries size of cherries, thornless tree of Coro- 

 m and el, 



169. ILEXIDES Raf. the G. Cordia L. 

 although yet put among the BORRAGINES even 

 by Kunth, is quite akin to those above and the 

 MYRSINITES, differing merely by stamens al- 

 ternate to corolla, while the styles and fruits are 

 as in the Rhamnides, it is therefore the type 

 with Hex &c of my nat. fam. Ilexides 1815, 

 quite distinct from Borragines by berries or 

 drupes for fruit instead of several akenas as in 

 Labiates, it differs therefore from them as the 

 VERBENIDES from the Labiates. The akin cap- 

 sular Genera are also my N. fam. DICHONDRA-
