Largo, Porto Rico. A form common on the south side of the island and at Mayaguez. 

 Long, nearly straight, stem not depressed, green in color. The flesh is very firm, mod- 

 erately thick, and with very few fibers. At Yauco slightly shorter specimens were 

 called "Mangotina," a name used very loosely in all markets, this form selling for ten 

 for one cent. The flavor is fine, though the taste of turpentine is pronounced, and to 

 those who do not object to this feature it will appeal as one of the best of the Porto 

 Rican forms. — Collins.
