( 445) 
Long Island (Coker, 50z). Not yet found in the northern Ba- 
mas. 
CaSSINE ATTENUATA (Rich.) Kuntze. 
A single tree, about 5 m. high, occurs on the south shore of Lake 
Cunningham, from which fruiting specimens were obtained ( Brzt- 
ton & Brace, 626). Also found between Camfield Bay and Cab- 
bage Pond, Inagua (Wash d& Taylor, 1306). The specimens 
seem to be inseparable specifically from Wrigh?’s Cuban numbers, 
7144 and 2206 (Elaeocarpum xylocarpum attenuatum (Rich.) 
Urban), though the leaves are more strongly revolute-margined. 
Prof. Urban has founded the subspecies &. xylocarfum Baha- 
mense (Symb. Ant. 5: 88) on Eggers, 387¢, from Fortune Island, 
but I have not seen this specimen; from his description I think it 
likely to be the same as the Lake Cunningham plant. 
ALLOPHYLUS cominia (Sw.) Radlk. 
Frequent in the coppice at Waterloo, New Providence (Britton 
& Brace, 715). 
DoponaEA EHRENBERGI Schlecht. (2. viscosa obovata Hitchc, 
Rep. Mo. Bot. Gard. 4: 73. 1893) 
Common on the Bahamas: Inagua (Wash & Taylor, 955, 1032, 
1035, 1107, 1421); Rum Cay (Coker, 444); Cat Island (Aivtch- 
cock) ; New Providence ( Curtiss); Abaco ( Coker, 567). Distinct 
from D. viscosa by its small spatulate to obovate leaves, and the 
small fruit. The type locality of this species is Santo Domingo. 
Reynosia NorTHROPIANA Urban, Symb. Ant. 3: 315. 
Sandy coppice near Old Fort, New Providence (&rctton & 
Brace, 708). Known hitherto only from Red Bays, Andros, and 
described from flowering specimens. As seen by us it becomes a 
tree 5 m. high, the mature leaves thick, 5-6 cm. long and 1.5-2.5 
cm. broad, finely reticulate-veined, nearly all of them emarginate; 
the fruit is oval, 1 cm. long, 8 mm. in diameter, the flesh thin; 
fruiting pedicels 5-6 mm. long. 
Sarcomphalus Taylori sp. nov. 
labrous, densely branched shrub, 1 m. high or less, some of 
the branches long and prostrate, the bark gray, the twigs green, 
angled, unarmed, or occasionally with a spine 1-2 cm. long in the 
upper axils. Leaves alternate, obovate, bright green on both sides, 
but a little paler beneath than aboves 1.5-2.5 cm. long, 2 cm. wide 
or less, emarginate or rounded at apex, narrowed at the base, 
3-nerved just above the base, the ae elevated on the upper surface,
