FLORA OF THE SUNDRIBUNS. 
Cdssalpinia Bonducella : also northern clearings and edges of 
northern forests. 
Csesalpinia Nuga : also general. 
Cassia Sophera. 
Barringtonia racemosa : also general. 
Sesuvium Portulacastrum : also river-banks. 
Ixora parviflora^ 
Launea pinnatifida* 
Ipomoea pes-aaprgs, 
I pomes a longijlora. 
Ipomosa illustris: d\so xivQX-hdiwks. 1 
Dolichandrone Rheedei: also general. 
Acanthus ilicifolius : also general, 
Lippia geminata : also clearings. 
Vitex trifolia. 
Vitex Negundo. 
Clerodendron neriifolium. 
Clerodendron inerme : also general. 
Aristolochia indica. 
Cassytha filijormis, 
Trewia nudiflorax also in northern clearings, wild. 
Ficus Rumphii : also on ruins at Jatta. 
Crinum asiaticum : also general. 
Aneilema nudiflorum. 
Pycreus polystachyus : also in clearings. 
Cyperus tegetiformis . 
Mariscus albescens : occasional on river-banks but most plentiful

Saccharum spontaneum : also savannahs. 
Zoysia pungens'. also pretty general. 
Of the species here enumerated nearly 40 per cent, occur there- 
fore in the Sundribuns only at the sea-face. More striking still, a 
considerable number of these species, such as Crotalaria retusa, 
C, Saltiana and C. verrucosa^ Cassia Sophera^ Derris scandens^ 
Naravelia zeylanica, Odina Wodier^ Ixora parviflora^ Dolichandrone 
Rheedei^ Aristolochia indica^ Aneilema nudijlorum^ Cyperus tegeti- 
formisy Saccharum spontaneum are not truly littoral species; they 
therefore owe their presence here to some agency other than that of 
ocean currents.
