PLATE X L I X 



Another specimen of the Malta round oranga. 



a and b. Surface chagrined, pinholes rather close ; surface covered with miliary oil-glands. In 

 this specimen the juice-vesicles were developed also from the sides of the pulp 

 carpels, as shown in b and h. Some of them were in an undeveloped state, much 

 like the oil-cells of the rind ; i shows them in a section of the side of h. 



h shows some of the pedicelled juice-vesicles isolated and hanging down, the others having 

 been removed to prevent confusion. In many of the large specimens of the Malta 

 orange type the circumference part of the pulp carpels has an emargination as shown 

 in b at x. This is common in pummelos. 



c is a rain leaf ; d and e very small spring leaves ; and / is the small spine of this type of 

 orange. 



g shows little points on the under side of some of the leaves, as if caused by some insect.
