These figures are also taken from the Flora Amboyn. of Rumphms. 



a would appear a smooth form of Lmo ventricosiis, but, I believe by mistake, Burmann called 

 it Limo ferus (or lemon swangy), Vol. II., Tab. xxvi., Fig. 3, pictured with four 

 petals. Here we have again the broad petiole wings of Limo ventricosus with an 

 entirely smooih fruit. 



6 is an ovoid Kaghzi nimboo of India, which in no way differs from the fruit of a, as far as 

 one can judge from a picture. The spines of a are identical with those of b ; the 

 latter, however, has the leaf of e. 



e, c is the Limonellus aurarius (lemon Maas), Vol. II., Tab. xxx., pictured with four and also 

 with five petals. This is the smallest of all citrus ; not used for food, but by 

 goldsmiths, for cleaning gold. The leaves are pictured entire, but the broad winged 

 petiole of a is still maintained. I think that in some parts of India also the 

 smallest Kaghzi nimboo is used by goldsmiths for the same purpose. 



and d are both taken from Vol. II., Tab. xxix., of Rumphius. e (Limo tennis) is distinctly 

 like an Indian Kaghzi nimboo in all its features. (Vide Plate CCXXYIIL, Fig. b, and 

 other plates, showing the small lime of India.) Rumphius says "it is thin skinned, 

 very common, and much used.'' It is pictured with four petals. Loureiro, under 

 Citrus limonum, says, " spinous, petioles often linear," and refers it to Vol. IL, 

 Tab. xxix., of Rumphius. Unfortunately thif- table has both d and e. d is distinctly 

 a lemon (C. medica, var. limonum), and is distinctly a true lime, which may possibly be
