ADDITIONS AND COKKECTIONS. 



During the time that the previous sheets have taken in passing through the press 

 numerous new specimens of Ebenaceae have reached this country and been presented to 

 my notice, containing indeed several new species and affording additional matter for the 

 more complete knowledge of old ones. So far as circumstances allowed, I have incorporated 

 the additional matter in its proper place, and such information as was not sufficiently 

 early for that purpose, I now add at the end : I also take the same opportunity of correcting 

 the misprints, mistakes, and omissions that have been noticed, and of making any slight 

 additions that further research has rendered desirable. The estimate given on page 61 for 

 the number of recent species in the family and in the genera Maba and Diospyros will 

 require a slight increase in each case ; thus the whole Natural Order contains more than 

 260 recent species, of which about 100 are new or not previously described; and if the 

 fossils are included the whole number will be at least 300.
