The wild fruits recorded by Dr. Afzelius, and which 

 were also seen by Mr. Don, either under the same names, or 

 with other names which can be satisfactorily attached to them, 

 are the following. 



I. The Sarcocephalus Esculentus is the Country Fig of 



Afzelius. 



2. The Country Cherries of Afzelius are conjectured by 



Mr. Don to be his Monkey Apples. 



3. Country Grapes. 



4. The Antidesma of Afzelius is perhaps the tree which 



produces Mr. Don's Country Currants. 



5. The small Fig-tree. 



6. The Guavas of Afzelius are the Wild Guavas of Mr. Don. 

 7- Hog Plum or Yellow Plum. 



8. Mammee Apples. 



9. Butter and Tallow Tree. 



10. The Cainito of Afzelius may be taken for the first of 

 Mr. Don's Star Apples. 



II. Cola. The varieties are not distinguished by Dr. Af- 



zelius. 



12. Velvet Tamarinds. 



13. Brown Tamarinds. 



14. Pine Apples. Dr. Afzelius does not mention the two 



varieties noticed by Mr. Don ; he only speaks generally 

 of the fruit as being found wild as well as cultivated. 

 The following fruits of Mr. Don must for the present be 

 considered as distinct from any noticed by Dr. Afzelius. 



1. African Custard Apple. 



2. Monkey Bread.
