The catalogue attributes this fibre (sent by H. H. the Raja of Vizia- 

 nagram) to an Agave, but it may have been taken from Sansevie-

 tola, Roxb. which is more like a screwpine in the leaf than the 

 other Indian species. 



Cf. Mv.nda and Kalamanda, also Kalabanda. 



See ' Cumari '. The correct transliteration is Kumari. 



Probably from the local name of Pandanus fascicutaris, Lam.

Cf . Kantala and Cantata.

 Sirooghoo Kuttatay '. See Small Aloe also.
