The Tocte, a Native Ecuadorian Walnut Tree. (Juglans sp., 

 S. P. I. No. 52611.) 



This tree strongly resembles our native black walnut {Juglans nigra), but the foliage 

 is perhaps larger. The nuts are U inches in diameter, and the kernel has a mild 

 pleasant flavor. The wood is said to be fine grained and to take a beautiful finish.
