ON SEEDLINGS 



Nos. 12-14. Lanceolate, acuminate, distantly serrulate, shortly 

 petiolate. 



Lecythis Ollaria, L. ? (fig. 849). 



The seedling figured below (fig. 349) was grown under the above 

 name, but I do not feel clear about it. Possibly it is a species of 



PIG. 849.- Lecythis Ollaria. Nat size. 



Couratari. I figure it, however, on account of the remarkable coty- 

 ledons, which resemble those of Tilia. 



Hypocotyl erect, terete, finely pubescent, 5-9 cm. or more 

 above the soil.
