ORDER CLXV.— MYRSINACEtE,— Lindl. Nat. Syst. p. 224. 



Shrubs, rarely climbing, or trees, by Lindl. referred to 20 genera. Of 

 these, Spreng. syst. and Alph. DC. enumerate 59 species for S. America, 

 Mexico and the W. Indies ; 4 for Japan ; 5 for New Holland and the 

 South Sea Islands ; 6 for Bourbon and Mauritius ; 3 for Madagascar ; 1 

 for N. America ; 1 for the Canaries ; 1 for the Azores ; and 1 for China. 

 Harvey assigns 15 species to S. Africa. In the E. Indies have, ac- 

 cording to Alph. DC, (including Oncinus) been discovered 102 species ; 

 viz. 2 of JSgiceras ; 13 of Myrsine ; (including M. acuminata, Ro3'l.) ; 1 

 of Badula, (Ceylon,) ; 54 oi Ardisia ; 13 oi Embelia ; 2 of Choripetalum ; 

 2 of Samara, (Roxb.) ; 14 of Mcesa ; and 1 of Oncinus. (Lour.) To these 

 must be added 6 species uncertain as to their genus. Most of them in- 

 habit the Himalayas, Assam, the Khassya Mountains, the Circars, Neel- 

 gherries, and the Mountains of the ultra-gangetic Peninsula of India, and 

 of Java. But few species have been found in the plains. Properties 

 almost unknown.
