PSYCHOTRIA CYANOCOCCA. 
If one were to search the vegetable kingdom through, it would be difficult to find any other plant 
which displays, either in its flowers, fruit, or seeds, such a beautiful ultramarine colour as is exhibited 
by the berries of this species from Chontales, Nicaragua. Tlio colour and size of the flowers is disap- 
pointing to the lovers of gay tints and large blossoms, but as soon as the fniit begins to assume shape 
and substance, a tint is displayed which can be but imperfectly rendered by the Greek term cyaneus. 
In its native woods the plant grows as underwood, and is loaded throughout the winter -rvith largo blue 
berries, as many as from 30 to 35 growing on one bunch. 3s. Gd. and 5s.
