species with succulent fruits, Northern Australia. While, therefore, in 

 the table of distribution the occurrence of the species in the large divi- 

 sions of the globe are given on the left hand side, on the right hand the 

 distribution within South-Eastern Asia itself is given. Further, since 

 the geographical position of these islands indicates that they are an inte- 

 gral portion of the Andaman chain, and as the Andamans altogether form 

 as it wex"e part of the debatable land between Indo- China and Malaya, 

 the occurrence of the species there is also noted. In all cases where the 

 occurrence of a species in the Andamans is, at least so far as we yet 

 know, only due to its presence in the Coco Islands, the species in ques- 

 tion is indicated by [ ] brackets. The other debatable territory, so far 

 as Malaya and Indo-China are concerned, is Tenasserim, and in all cases 

 where the occurrence of a Coco Island species m Indo-China depends 

 entirely on its occurrence in Tenasserim it is marked by the same [] 

 brackets in the Indo-Chinese column. Similarly when, as is frequently 

 the case, a species is only African in the sense of occurring in the Mas- 

 carene Islands, the same [] brackets are used in the African column.
