PLATE LXXXIX 



These are leaves of the sour pummelo, shown on the foregoing Plate LXXXVIII. 



a, b, and c are fully-developed rain leaves, and d, e, and / are small spring leaves. They have 

 some tomentnm on the under side of the mid-rib, and round the edges of the 

 petiole wings. The petiole wings of b are the largest ; most of the other leaves have 

 them much smaller, the petioles of the small leaves being only ridged. The petiole 

 in all is short, and different from the long one of the pummelo, proper. The leaves 

 are serrated rather than crenated, and the serrations commence from the base of the 

 leaf as in lemons. The oil-cells are as usual, and the scent citrine, but feeble. If not 

 an Amilbed, this large pummelo-like citrus may be a lemon of the " Gulgul " variety ; 

 and, having been grown hi Calcutta, may have got a thicker skin than usual. The 

 spines g and h are not unlike those of the lemon tribe ; but the winged petiole 

 inclines me to think it an Amilbed.
