486 PHANEROGAMIA. 



penninerviis ; glandulis petiolaribus nullis ; legumine tenui-lignoso 

 tomentello, valvis laxe venosis. 



Hab. Feejee Islands, at Sandalwood Bay, Vanua-levu, &c. 



This is nearly related to S. grandiflora, Benth. : but the pod is 

 thinner; the pinnse and the leaflets are rather fewer; there are no 

 petiolar glands, and none between the pinnse ; but they occasionally 

 occur between the uppermost leaflets. The leaflets are bright green 

 both sides, shining above, glabrous, scarcely oblique, elliptical, emar- 

 ginate, about half an inch long, pinnately veined. Flowers not seen. 

 Legume oblong, 5 or 6 inches in length and 2 inches wide, thin 

 and plane, twisted, minutely tomentose with a rusty down, scarcely 

 thickened at the margins ; the thin but woody valves strongly cohe- 

 rent between the seeds, loosely veined with a few salient and narrow 

 veins, which branch into slender reticulated veinlets. Seeds trans- 

 verse, oblong, about 8 lines in length.

Hab. Brazil ; in the Organ Mountains. 



2. Inga Feuillei, DC. 



Hab. From a garden at Lima (without flowers or fruit) : cultivated 

 under the name of Pacai. 



The foliage accords with the figure of the Pacai in Feuiltee, except 

 that the leaflets are rather obtuse at both ends. There are no mate- 

 rials for clearing up this obscure species.
