Contfere—F uniperus. 44t 
Royle, a tree of considerable size, scarcely known in culti- 
vation. 
10. J. fragrans.—An erect pyramidal shrub with very 
numerous exceedingly slender branches densely clothed with 
minute scale-like imbricated silvery-green leaves. In young 
plants and on scattered branches of older ones the leaves are 
subulate and spreading. This species emits an extremely 
powerful odour when bruised. It is said to be a native of 
Northern Europe by some, and by others it is reported to come 
from the Rocky Mountains in North America, that is to say, if 
both parties have the same species in view. 
11. J. Onycédrus. Prickly Cedar.—A small loosely branched 
tree with linear-lanceolate very sharp-pointed light green leaves, 
and large shining red fruits. A native of the Mediterranean 
region. 
J. macrocérpa, from the same region, is distinguished by 
its still larger purplish glaucous fruit about 8 or 9 lines in 
diameter. J. drupacea, from Asia Minor, has the spreading 
leaves in six rows, and a fleshy fruit about an inch in diameter. 
J. Bermudidna is a very beautiful though tender species with 
long linear spreading leaves of a light yellowish-green colour. 
12. J. Phenicea.—A small ornamental tree with loose 
drooping branches and small imbricated leaves of a light green 
colour. J. Langoldiana is said to be the male plant of this 
species. The medium-sized fruit is described as pale yellow 
when ripe. A native of rocky districts on the shores of the 
Mediterranean Sea. 
9. CALLITRIS. 
Shrubby or small trees with long very slender jointed 
branches and often exceedingly minute scale-like persistent 
leaves. Flowers monecious. Fruit globular, composed of 4 to 
6 unequal woody valvate scales with one or two seeds at the 
base of each. There are several species, chiefly Australian. 
The generic name is derived from «anos, beautiful. 
1. C. quadrivdlvis.—A tree of considerable size and irre- 
gular growth in its native country, Barbary, but remaining 
shrubby with us, and only hardy in the warmest parts of 
Britain and Ireland. 
Widdringtonia is a South African genus of tender shrubs.
