300. (5) CHINA PSEUDO-REGIA. 



Note. This specimen is in flat pieces, which correspond closely to 

 those of C. elliptica, Wedd. , in Howard's collection. 



(6) CHINA CARIBJEA SPURIA. 



Note. This appears to be the bark described under the name of 

 Ezostemma caribroum, Ram. et Schult., in Hitt. dei Drag., 6 m * 6d., 

 t. iii., p. 189. 



(7) CHINA DE PARA PALLIDA. (False Red Bark.) 



(8) CHINA DE Rio JANEIRO, "from DR. POHL, of Vienna." 



(9) CHINA DE Rio JANEIRO, "from Liverpool." 



Note. Specimen 7 is in thick quills ; specimen 8 similar, but partly 

 exfoliated ; specimen 9 was imported from Para, and consists of one flat 

 piece. Ail three appear to be identical, and are probably the bark de- 

 scribed by Quibourt under the name of Quinquina nova colorada, in 

 Hist, des Drog., i. iii., p. 183. 



(10) CHINA SANCT.E LUCLS, SEU PITON. 



Note. This is the bark described in Hitt. det Drag., t. iii., p. 189. 



(11) CORTEX ADSTRINQENS BRASILIENSIS SPORIUS, "No. xii., Martiny." 

 Note. Ibis specimen is probably the kind figured in Goebel vnd 

 Kunze, pt. i., taf. xzx., figs. 6-9. 



(12) CORTEX ADSTRINGENS BRASILIENSIS SPURIUS, "No. vii., Martiny." 



Note. This specimen has a taste faintly resembling that of sassafras, 

 and has a very rough inner surface, somewhat like that of Drimys 

 Winteri, but has a greenish brown colour. It does not correspond with 

 the figure in Goebel und Kunze, pt. i., taf. xxx., fig. 6-9. 



(13) CHINA JAEN PALLIDA. 



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

 to C. pubescens, var. Pelleteriana, of Howard's collection. 



301. CINCHONA BARKS collected by POEPPIG in South America, and 

 presented to Dr. PEREIRA by Dr. J. MARTINY. 



(1) CASCA.RILLA NEGRILLA FINA. 



Note. This specimen somewhat resembles that of Calisaya. It has a 

 peculiar taste, faintly recalling that of bitter almonds. It is attributed 

 by Poeppig to C. glandulifera. 



(2) CASCARILLA BOBA. 



Note. This bark is in quills, and is evidently that of C. pubescens, 

 var. purpnrea, P. et P. It resembles in taste and physical characters 

 the specimens of that bark in Howard's collection. It is to this species 

 that Poeppig attributes it. 



(3) CASCARILLA. PATA DE GALLINAZO. 



Note. This specimen appears to correspond with the specimens of C. 

 Peruviana, How., in Howard's collection.
