general aspect of the plant is different from that of the preceding species ; the colour of the flowers is deeper 
and redder, the claws of the petals are shorter and the stamens also. 
1. Htematoxylon Campecheanum ? L. — De Cand. Prod. 2.p. 485. 
Hab. Realejo. — A barren specimen of this, “ the Nicaragua wood," is in the Herbarium. It has quite the 
structure of foliage of Hamatoxylon, and in the Dictionnaire des Sciences Naturelles, the “ Bois de Nicaragua” 
is referred to the Haematoxylon Campechiamm. But our specimen has many points of difference from the 
true H. Campecheanum. The branches are much stouter, the ultimate ones indeed cylindrical ; but, lower 
down, where the thickness is equal to that of the little finger, the branches become compressed and as it were 
deformed and more or less bluntly' angular. The outer bark is much darker coloured, covered with little raised 
points, so as to render the surface everywhere quite rough not only to the touch but to the eye. The leaves 
are larger, always even in the young branches growing in clusters. With these differences before us, we dare 
not venture to consider the tree as identical with the ” Logwood,” nor do we know whether in commerce 
the two woods be considered the same.

Hab. Tepic. — There is only one specimen of this plant, with imperfect flowers ; but its foliage is very 
peculiar. The petiole is about 2 inches long, bearing at the upper extremity two pairs of ovato-lanceolate 
acute and mucronated leaflets, each about three quarters of an inch long, marked with brown (resinous ?) dots 
on the underside : these leaves are very remote. The whole plant is clothed with a glandular pubescence. 
The flowers are moderately large, deep orange colour.
