EDIBLE FRUIT. 315 
Other edible fruits, some of delicious flavour, are met 
with throughout the group, either perfectly wild or in 
a state of cultivation. Most of them have been in Fiji 
from time immemorial, and only a few, such as the pine- 
with a smooth surface, and supported on stalks, four or five inches long, 
nodding from the first. 
3. Uto buco.— Known by that name throughout the group. Leaves with 
an even surface. Fruit ovate obtuse, larger than that of most sorts, des- 
titute of seeds, and with a smooth surface when ripe. 
4. Uto kogo.—Known by this name throughout the group, but in some 
dialects called Ogo and Qogo. Leaves bullate; fruit without seeds, and 
as large as that of Uto dina, smooth on surface. 
5. Uto votovoto.—Known under this name throughout the group. Leaves 
with an even surface; fruit oblong without seeds, and covered with prickles 
three-quarters of an inch long. 
6. Uto varaga.—Known by this name in Rewa and Bau; Uto varaka 
in some dialects. Leaves larger than those of any other kind; fruit 
roundish, of middle size, without seeds, and with a rough surface. 
7. Uto bokasi.—Known by that name in Rewa and Ovalau. Leaves with 
even surface ; fruit obovate, with a smooth surface, without seeds, erect 
when young, nodding when ripe, and arriving at maturity early in the 
scason. 
8. Uto sore——Known by that name in Rewa, by that of Uto vaka sorena 
in Ovalau, Uto usalea in the Straits of Somosomo, and Uto maliva at Nu- 
kubalaon. Uto sasaloa may also prove a synonym. ‘“ Sore” or “ Sorena,” 
signifies a seed ; hence Ufo sore, or Uto vaka sorena, is the seed-bearing 
breadfruit; the only kind in which the ovules develope into seeds, render- 
ing it probable that this kind is the parent of all the others. Leaves with 
even surface. 
9. Uto rokouta.—Knuown by that name at Namara, near Bau. Leaves 
bullate, giving the tree a sickly look. 
10. Uto balekana.—Known by that name in the Straits of Somosomo and 
at Ovalau. Leaves with even surface; fruit small but of superior quality, 
according to the natives. 
11. Uto qio.—Known by that name in Ovalau. Fruit almost as large 
as that of Uto buco. “Qio” is the name for shark, and was probably 
given to this fruit from the surface its resembling in roughness that of 
the fish. 
12. Uto vonu.—Known at Somosomo. Leaves . . .; fruit largish. 
III. Leaves Bi-pInwatirrp. 
13. Uto kalasai.—Known by that name in Rewa, and by that of Uto
