OF THE HEEBAIIIUM AMBOINENSE. 279 
Dr Roxburgh, then, it no doubt is the same with that of 
Sonnerat ; but then, it is not the plant figured by Rum- 
phius (t. 10), so that, until farther investigated, the Aqui- 
laria ovata of Willdenow seems a very doubtful species. 
CAP. XIV. 
Agallochum spumuM Garo Tsjampacca dictum, p. 40. 
Humph ius conjectures, that the tree which produces this 
is in fact a species of Tsjampaca or Miclielia, which, from 
what he says, seems very probable. 
Agallochum album, p. 41. 
Rumphius gives no account of the tree producing this 
valuable perfume, only he cautions us from confounding it 
with the Lignum moschatum^ often called by the same name. 
He also cautions us against confounding with the Agallo- 
chum, the resinous substances produced by the Arbor exccR- 
cans (Herb. Amb. ii. Excoscaria Agallochum L.) and 
by the Ligularia (Herb. Amb. iv. 88 ; Euphorbia nerei- 
Jblia L. ), both of which he afterwards describes at length.

Rumphius having never seen the trees that produce these 
odorous woods, it is almost impossible to form any conjec- 
ture concerning them. When, however, he speaks of their 
use, he says, " plurimum adhibetur ad unguenta odorifera, 
quae supra lapidem minuta conteruntur, et quibuscum cor- 
pus illinitur jucundi odoris gratia." Now, in Ava, I found.
