a, b, and c are also leaves of the Malta orange tree of Etawah. Usually this variety has a stout 

 petiole, only margined. 



d and e are leaves of the true Sylhet orange, of the Suntara type. Usually their petioles are 

 more slender than the former, and only margined, thinner and less polished ; the 

 minute oil-glands slightly project on the surface, giving them a somewhat chagrined 

 appearance. These leaves are given for comparison. There is scarcely a citrus tree 

 which has all its leaves at all times typical. On any tree one is sure to find 

 some leaves which might he 'easily mistaken for the leaves of some other variety. 

 The rain leaves usually differ much in development from the spring leaves.
