PLATE C X V. 



This is the Shor orange of Almora, Kumaon. Plucked in October, and therefore rather 

 unripe. It is the Suntara orange of Kumaon, sent by Mr. A. Harris. 



a and b are one fruit, much chagrined, green, turning yellowish ; skin with flavour of Suntara ; 

 pulp deep orange, sour-sweet ; centre solid, probably because unripe ; seeds green, when 

 cut. Skin rather thick and solid ; always so in the unripe Suntara. By further 

 ripeness and expansion the centre would becom6 hollow, and the skin thinner and 

 looser. The seeds have a rather long beak. 



c is a slightly smoother specimen. This orange of Kumaon is called indifferently Shor, Sitowli, 

 or G&ngoli orange of Almora. There appears to be no difference between a and c. 

 The names are taken from the plates where they are grown. 



d is the leaf of a. 



e and / came with c. They were pale green, with deeper green veins.
