The fruifc of thig vnriety in trnVnown ; but the ecanty material, so far as it p^oas, 
appoai-a to show that the plant in merely an apettvlous form of S. acida witli leares 
more obovato thatt is UBnal iti tbat Bpeoiea. I bavo therefore redticod it to a form 
of the latter, Bluirve tiescribod other three species of Sonneratia with petals, 
via., 9, olovata, S. eveniaf and S. lanceohta separating them chiefly by charRcters 
taken from tho shapes of the leaveH. Bat in this gcnas the form of the loaf is very 
vjiriahle, and I doubt whether these three speoies are more than forms of 3. acida. 
S. Poffapat, BlftTJce, and S. ovaliHf Korth. are probably nlso forma of it. 
2. Sonneratia alba, Smith in Roes Cyclop. XXXIII, No, 2. A small 
ti*oo 10-15 feet !iigh ; yonns; branches rather terete. Leaves ohovate or

long and nearly as broad, petiole -ISo-'SS in, Floiver-huds narrowly 
ellipsoiil, tapering to each end, very slightly ridged ; the fully develoi>ed 
calyx sharply angled ; its lobes 6-8, oblonc^-lanceolate, acute. Fefals none. 
Flowers abonfc the size of those of adda, usually 2 or 3 together. 
Capsi«/6 broadly obconie, ribbed, 1 in. or more in diam. at the apex.
