The writer has not seen fruiting specimens of a Japanese sea- 

 coast species identified by Mr. Maximowicz and others with C. ohtusifolia 

 DO. (0. lineata DO. ; DolicJios Uneatus Thunbg.) but from a flowering 

 specimens in Herb. Calcutta, it is apparently not specifically identical 

 with the Indian G. ohtusifolia figured by Dr. Oleghorn {Madr. Lit, Soc. 

 Journ.f n. s., i, t. 4). On the other hand there is no apparent difference 

 in flowers, leaves or habit, between the Japanese DoUcJios Uneatus and 

 the Indo-Ohinese and Malayan Gaiiavalia turgida. If the fruits are also 

 found to agree, and if Dolichos Uneatus is the true Ganavalia ohtusifoUa, 

 G, turgida will have to be reduced to G. ohtusifoUa. If the fruits differ 

 G. turgida undoubtedly deserves the specific rank assigned to it by 

 Graham, Wallich and Miquel. The name *' G. ohtusifoUa,'" it may be 

 remarked, is as appropriate to the Indian seashore plant, as it is unsuit- 

 able to the Japanese littoral G. Uneata and to the Indo-Ohinese and 

 Malayan littoral G. turgida.
