299. (8) CHINA JAEN. (Ash Bark.) 



Note. This specimen consists of arched and twisted quills. It corre- 

 sponds to the figures in Goebel und Kunze, Waar., taf. x., fig. 6-9. It is 

 the bark of C. subcordata, and does not occur in Howard's collection. 

 See Hist, des Drag., t. iii, p. 178. Per. Mat. Med., [3] vol. ii., pt. 

 ii., p. 1636. 



(9) CHINA PSEUDO-LOXA. 



Note. This specimen is in quills, and corresponds in external appear- 

 ance with Howard's specimen of C. officinalis, var. 5, crispa, from Peru. 



(10) CHINA EDBIGINOSA. 



Note. This specimen is in flat pieces. One piece evidently belongs to 

 C. pubescens, var. Pelleteriana, but the other two seem to correspond 

 with the bark C. Tucujensis in Howard's collection. 



(11) CHINA BICOLOKATA. 



Note. This specimen is in quills, and is identical with the specimen 

 in Howard's collection labelled Stenostomum acutatum. " The last twc 

 specimens were collected by H. von Bergen, but are not described in 

 his work." (Note from Dr. Pereira's catalogue.) For fig., see Goebel und 

 Kunze, pt. i., taf. xii., fig. 6, 7. 



300. Collection of CINCHONA BABES, made under the superintendence Oj 

 Dr. JULIUS MARTINY (author of Encyclopaedia der Medicinisci 

 pharmaceutischen naturalien und Rohwaarenkunde, 1843). 

 It includes barks of (at that date) recent introduction, most oJ 

 which have been described by him in the work above quoted. 



(1) CHINA Cusco VERA. 



Note. This specimen consists of fragments of quills, which appear to 

 be those of C. pubescens, var. purpurea. 



(2) CHINA RUBIGINOSA NOVA. 



a. Flat pieces. 



Note. This specimen appears to be the bark of C. lanceolata, R. et P. 



b. Qnills. 



c. Flat pieces. 



Note. Specimens b and c are referred by Mr. J. E. Howard to C. 

 nitida, R. et P. 



(3) CHINA ALBA, Humboldt. 



Note. This specimen is in flat fragments. In its granular structure 

 it corresponds to the white bark of Howard's collection, but differs 

 slightly in the external surface not being so rough, and in the internal 

 surface being of a purplish tint. It is accurately figured in Goebel 

 und Kunze, pt. i., taf. xiv., figs. 9-11. 



(4) CHINA EEGIA SPURIA, "from Bordeaux." 



Note. This bark is in quills, and consists chiefly of the bark of C. 

 micrantha, R. et P., with one quill of C. Calisaya, Wedd. The bark of 

 C. micrantha is readily recognised by its peculiar taste, which recalls 

 that of Prunus Yirginiana.
