o PHANEROGAMIA. 



This is doubtless a polygamodioecious species. Although the flowers 

 have fallen, they were evidently smaller than those of £ ndwua of 

 New Zealand, of which the sepals, in a specimen gathered by Mr Moss- 

 man, are fully an inch in length, and the thin, broader, and acu- 

 minated leaves, and more compound panicles, further distinguish it 

 from that species. It has more points of resemblance with C. fuhda, 

 Raoul, PI. Nouv. Zel. p. 23, t. 22; but that likewise has coriaceous 

 leaflets, which, moreover, are hairy underneath. I have dedicated the 

 species to Dr. Pickering, who, with Mr. Brackenridge, secured a fine 

 botanical collection in the Feejee Islands, under circumstances of great 

 personal risk.

The foliage varies greatly in this, as in other species of the genus ; 

 but our specimens, both in flower and fruit, belong to the typical form.
