6 Possibly the true B. acantkocarpa Mart, does not occur in Guiana, 
but is represented by its variety crispata Drude. 
7 New species named, but possibly not yet published, by Professor 
Trail. 
8 This species is very commonly cultivated and occurs only where it 
may probably be an escape. 
9 A very doubtful species. See p. 261. 
10 Possibly A. gynacanthum is represented in Guiana only by its va- 
riety Munbacca, which however Schomburgk makes a separate species. 
11 Schomburgk's A. tucuma Mart: is, evidently from his note, not 
the true A. tucuma Mart.
