 A spreading, umbrageous large tree, with cordate, broad-acumi- 

 nate, cross-veined leaves, on long petioles ; fruit the size of a small 

 orange, yellow when ripe, and covered with innocuous bristles ; 

 is eaten, but is not very palatable. The tree is common near to 

 villages in the Concan, but is never in as far as we have seen ; 

 found wild therefore is probably not a native of the Peninsula. ( Vide 

 remarks by Wight and Arnott as to its not being a native.) One 

 tree may be seen in the compound of the Grant College, near to 

 the BycuUa Road.
