m At P* 47? of the present volume will be found some 
notes on this tree, and from the same source tMonats- h 
schrtft des Veretnes zur Beforderung des Gartenbdues , ^ 
&c.) we now extract the original description, given 
below, and the following additional particulars. One of 
the most noteworthy characters, Dr. Bolle says, pointed \J 
out by Dr. Pancic, resides in the glaucous upper surface 
of the leaves, but this is at present rather obscure, v k 
because, as is well known, the position of the re- L 
pective surfaces of the leaves of many species of this V 
section is reversed by a twist of the petiole. Accord- 4 
mg to Braun, P. Omorika differs in an essential cha- m 
racter from P. orientalis, to which it is closely allied, k 
in having no stomates on the under-surface of the 
leaves, and agrees in this respect with some of the 
species inhabiting Eastern Asia. The special localities 
at present known for this Pine are the rugged moun¬ 
tainous districts of South-Western S er via, near Zaovina, 
where it is rather rare, and more abundantly at 
Crvena Stena, above Rastitse. The natives also 
report it from Jangac, above Stula, in Bosnia, and 
, Pancic has recently ascertained that the tree is 
known throughout the Czernagora.
