Tlio only pods of true D, vcluiino. at Calcutta are still unripe ; tlio desoriplion 
of the froit is therefore taken from Mr. Baker's nocoutit ; to ilr. Bentliaiu the frnit 
was anknown. 
Of VAR, Maiu^dyi wbich, as a note mnciQ in Hfjrb. Kcw indicates, is at Kew 
treated as a *' less bin ry vsrietj" of D. velutina , tlje writer lias seen no frtiit. Not 
improbably it may be foand ultimately necessary to treat it as a distinct species to 
be known as D. Maingayi.
