NAKED LIGNEOUS WALNUT, 
OF NEW SOUTH WALES. 
Though we have Piamed the annexed 
ngure, the Naked Ligneons Wahiut, to dis- 
tinguish it from the plant, or tree, which we 
have denominated the Ligneous Wahiut only, 
they by no means appear to he of the same 
species. This fruit, or seed, has no smooth 
or external covering ; hke our European Wal- 
nuts, and the Ligneous W~alr,ut of New South 
Vv^ales: at least, in the stage of it's growth 
represented by our original drawing. But, ir 
it should be supposed hkely to have lost any- 
external covering, in consequence of reaching 
it's full maturity — which v/e do not by any 
means suspect — as the Ligneous Walnut's 
outer coat still adheres, though the nut ap- 
pears burst with ripeness ; there is, still, siicli 
prodigious ditrerence in the form of the leaves, 
as to leave no doubt of their being distinct 
species. 
Not having received any informadon with 
cither of the drawings, except that they were 
represented
