2 PLANT MATERIAL INTRODUCED 



The interests of specialists working with lespedezas in a botan- 

 ical review of the genus are recorded by the following numbers 

 from Chosen, Japan, and Austria (nos. 104065-104067, 104068 and 

 104069, also 104669-104672). A collection of legumes from the Bel- 

 gian Congo (nos. 104070-104102) was presented by the Director of 

 the experiment station at Kisozi, Ruanda-Urundi Territory, as of 

 possible use in the extreme South. 



The interests of plant breeders are shown by the numerous im- 

 portations of delphiniums (nos. 104351-104369, 104570-104573, 

 104847-104851, 104890-104895, 104939-104943, and 104950-104953), 

 of antirrhinums (nos. 104557, 104924, 104925, 104948, and 104949), 

 and of althaeas (nos. 104636, 104837-104839, and^ 104921-104923) 

 for breeding experiments with rust-resistant strains, of digitalis 

 (nos. 104574-104576, 104896-104898, and 104954-104960) for botan- 

 ical review, and of salvias (nos. 104581-104592 and 104651-104658) 

 for horticultural examination and testing. 



Many palm species (nos. 104213-104216, 104331-104336, 104338- 

 104343, 104679-104704) have been presented by the botanic gardens 

 of Peradeniya, Trinidad, Georgetown, etc., to assist in the building 

 Up of the palm collection at the Coconut Grove Garden, where a 

 valuable collection is already established. 



The botanical determinations have been made and the nomen- 

 clature determined by Paul Russell, who has had general supervision 

 of this inventory.
