Soe. xxx. 365 (1875) that the more northern plant “is probably a 
variety only ”’ of the southern and typical form which has some- 
what smaller more definitely apiculate leaflets but which exhibits 
considerable variation in these characters. It seems best, there- 
fore, to regard E. Burkei as only a geographical variant generally 
recognizable by its ar scarcely apiculate leaflets.

Since Merrill, Phil. Journ. Sci. v. 32-33 (1910), called attention 
to the fact that Entada is not the earliest name for the genus it 
has been conserved in accord with the International Rules.

The evidence submitted by Merrill, Phil. Journ. Sci. v. 34 
(1910), and by Prain, Journ. As. Soc. Beng. Ixvi. pt. 2, 240 (1897), 
as to the validity of Parkia intermedia Hassk. makes necessary 
the renaming of the species more recently given the name inter- 
media by Oliver since this name is no longer borne by a species 
“ cet aoa regarded as a synonym.”

Prain, leis a Soc. Beng. Ixvi. pt. 2. 239 (1897), has shown 
that “the doubts expressed by Wight & Arnott as to the identity 
of their plant with Roxburgh’s Mimosa pedunculata are un- 
founded. ” The latter’s name, since it is the earlier, must therefore 
replace that of Wight & Arnott.
