o2 D. Prain — The Asiatic species of Dalbergia. [No. ] , 



D. lanceolaria Linn. f. ; the writer has nofc seen one. In any case Wall. Cat. 5 A 

 at the Linnean Society's rooms (Wallich's type Herbarium) is D. sericea. 



Dalbergia hircina Ham., as written up by Hamilton himself (in Herb. Brit. 

 Museum), on two specimens collected at Darhora 12th Apl., 1811, and at Snkhyia 

 23rd Aug., 1809, is D. lanceolaria. The type of D. sericea G. Don, as shown by a 

 specimen from Herb. Lambert named by G. Don himself, and now in the British 

 Museum collection, was also collected by Hamilton. On this Hamilton has noted 

 " Dalbergia ? A tree ; Cheria ghaut Hills 31-3-1802." It is this that has, in Wall. 

 Cat. 5871 B, been erroneously written up by Wallich as D. hircina.

Letter A of Wallich's Dalbergia robusta, reduced to this by Mr. Baker, is 

 D. sericea G. Don (=D. hircina Benth. and Bah. not of Ham.). Wight and Arnott 

 have mainly D. lanceolaria under D. frondosa, but one of their quoted sheets, 

 Wight n. 928, is D. paniculata. Leschenault iu Herb. Paris gives the native name 

 of this as " Toda cotty morum."
