516 MR. G. BENTHAM—REVISION OF THE GENUS CASSIA. 
although widely diffused over Central America, the West Indies, and a great portion of Columbia, it is 
as yet doubtful whether the species is really indigenous within the Brazilian limits. Grisebach, in his 
‘Flora of the British West Indies,’ restores the original name.

It appears from the notes of Spruce as well as of Siber (Count Hoffmannsegg’s collector) that this is 
the true Mari-mari of the Lower Amazon. It cannot, however, be the C. Marimari of Aublet, which, 
from his direct reference to Plumier, we must reduce to C. biflora. Excepting, however, C. Apoucouita, 
none of Aublet's Cassias can be positively identified ; for he only copies the diagnoses of other botanists, 
which do not always correspond with his plants, and his specimens in the Banksian herbarium are not in 
general authentically named. The one there referred to C. Marimari is C. multijuga, to which even 
Aublet could not well apply the diagnosis he gives. es ui cun
