from that of Rumphius in confounding the Condondum 
with the Ambalam, and from the erroneous synonyma 
given in the observation of Burman. While the Ambalam 
is clearly a Spondias, I have little doubt of the Condondum 
being the Mangifera pinnata of the younger Linnaeus, of 
which I have presented a specimen to the Company's col- 
lection.

Condondum Malaccense, p. 16^, t. 61. 
Whether or not this be the same with the Cat amholam 
of the Hortus Malabaricus (i. 93), as Burman in his ob- 
servation asserts, I cannot say, as the account of the Cat 
amholam is remarkably imperfect ; but the plant here de-

genus with the Mangifera pi?inata, quite different from a 
Spondias ; nor can I perceive any thing, except the leaves, 
to distinguish the Condondum from the Mangifera mdica.

Cynomoriuni, p. l63, t. 
This was called Cynometra by Linnaeus, and subsequent 
authors have adopted the same name, although not a little 
objectionable.

Cynomorium silvestre, p. 167, t. 63. 
Linnaeus, following the observation of Burman, joined 
this with the Iripa of the Hortus Malabaricus (iv. 65, 
t. 31), to form the Cynometra ramifloi^a ; and as usual has 
been followed, without comment, by more recent writers. 
I am very doubtful, however, concerning the identity of
