An apparently distinct species to which Blanco’s description of Coffea volubilis 
rather closely applies, his specific name being accordingly adopted and the species 
redescribed under Morinda. Blanco’s species was referred by F.-Villar to Morinda 
umhellata Linn., to which the description of Coffea volubilis manifestly does not 
ajiply. Lucinaea. odoraia Elmer, in herb.
