„ 249. Polnciana eJata reported to be wild on the liills of tlie Porbandar State 

 Katbiawtlr (Vern. Sidhsaro). 



P. 250. Hardwichia hinata. Grows best on sandstone or quartzose rocks. AVbere it 

 is foimd on Trap, tliis rock will be found to contain mucli quartz in veins and 

 nuggets. Some seed is produced annually, but good seed-years occur only at intervals 

 of 4-5 3^ears. The seedlings as a rule are cut back year after year during the hot 

 season, and in dense matting of grass roots or on hard soil, they are generally killed 

 outright. On loose soil and under favourable circumstances, where the taproot can 

 develop easily, so as to reach a moist underground stratum, they gradually gain 

 strength, to live through the fierce heat of the hot season, after having been cut back 

 to the ground during 6-7 j^ears in succession. In such cases well protected Anjan 

 forests have all age classes, from old trees down to young seedlings. See Fernandez in 

 Ind. For. XXIX. 517, H. F. Arbuthnot XXX. 123, and E. D. M. Hooper XXXI. 102.
