This new species of Juniperus is only met with at great elevations on the Himalaya Range, in situations 

 where the snow lies during a great part of the year. It is called by the natives Pudma Chundur, and is said 

 to be so plentiful in the district called Garawhal, that the inhabitants use it for fuel. The wood is said to be 

 made use of by the Hindoos in their sacrificial offerings, like the ancient cedar.

 given to the late Mr. Forsyth of the Royal Gardens, Kensington, who obhgingly presented some of them to me
