the same Terebinthacece,^ dividing them into : Anacardiacece, to which 

 he joined the Holigarna of Koxburgh and Picramnia ; Sumachinacece 

 (Rhus, Mauria, Buvaua, and Schinus) ; Spondiacece ; Burseracece imit- 

 iag the Garuga of Eoxbxjrgh ; ^ Amyridece and Pteleaeece, limited as 

 in the work of Kunth; Connaracece, comprising, besides the three 

 genera enumerated by Kunth, Eurycoma, Brunellia, Brucea, Tetradium, 

 and Ailantus. He enumerated afterwards as doubtful or imperfectly 

 known types, the genera Dictyoloma, Triceros, Trattinickia, Hueriea^ 

 Asaphes, Rwmphia, Philagonia, Tapiria, Cyrtocarpa, Thysanus, Bar- 

 lylus, Suriana, Lunanea,' Heterodendron, and Stylohasium, that is to 

 say, principally Rutacece and Swpindacece ; but he definitely ex- 

 cluded the family of Juglandece, which wiU perhaps be reunited 

 sooner or later after the example of Endlichee. Following closely 

 the inspiration of E. Beown, he considered as so many distinct 

 orders, in a class of Terehinthinece,^ the secondary groups of Kunth, 

 that is to say, the Juglandece ; the Anarcardiacece, to which are joined 

 Spondias and Salia; Burseracece, with which is connected Amyris as an 

 an allied genus ; the Connaracece, then aU the series we have enumerated 

 in the family of Rutacece. The successors of Endlichee, particularly 

 Bentham and Hooker^ and Marchand, in placing the Juglandece 

 among the apetalous series, maintained as perfectly distinct and 

 separate families the Burseracece, SaUacece, and Anacardiacece, the 

 latter comprising the Spondias as a simple tribe, and the former con- 

 taining under the same title, the Amyridece, that is to say, the species 

 of Amyris, which are Rutacece, and Hemprichia Eheenb., a true 

 Bursera of the genus Balsamea. Teiana and Planchon have, in 

 1872,'' brought into a single family the Burseracece and Anacardiacece ; 

 we can only accentuate more strongly their opinion, in making 

 the Burseracece a series of Terehinthacece, interposed to Spondia 

 and Anacardium. On the other side, we have shown'' how the 

 species of Mappia until now united to the Olacinece, of which they 

 have, moreover, certain characters, differ completely, however, by 

 their alternipetalous stamens, the composition of their gynseceum and 

 the manner of placentation, at the same time by all these characters 

 they approach the complete organisation of the Anacardice ; and it
