C0CC071 Inc/uum. But this here, is thrice as big as his. Tis 
ten inches long 5 in the middle, 4 ‘ over 3 both ends fome- 
what Oval. Very flat, fcarce above * an inch where thick - ' 
eft 3 the Belly level, the Back Convex and with a blunt 
Ridge. Of a dull ruflet, and all over rough with a great 
number oi fmall Knobs. Its whole Cavity is filled up 
with one Angle Fruit; which Bauhinus not well examining, 
only calls it Frudum ex fungofa quadam materie compaftuny 
Whereas it confifteth chiefly of a wonderful Congeries of 
white Fibers 3 not produced by the length, or breadth, but 
the thicknefs of the Fruit, both ways, as the Teeth in a 
double Comb. The fpaces betwixt which are filled up 
with duft or powder; which was originally, the fappy Pa¬ 
renchyma or Flefh of the Fruit. 
Another LOBE of the fame Species, but much lefs. 
A THICK LOBE from Virginea. Lobus ex Wingan- 
decaow. Not ill defcrib’d by Clufius. This here is not 
much above three inches and '■ long, an inch and I broad, 
and an inch thick. Vnciam denfus , faith Clufius improper¬ 
ly ; that word not exprefling the Dimention, but clofenefs 
or’little porofity of a Body. There are fome Lobes, faith

A Ihort FIBROUS LOBE. I meet with the Defecti¬ 
on hereof no where 3 nor the Figure, excepting in Beflerfc) CO Tib - *• 
by the Name of Frudus reticulato corio. Tis almolt three 
inches long, an inch and * broad, near an inch thick. At 
one edge it is cut through by the length 5 where, it you 
try to fpread the fides open, it refills, from its great fibro- 
fity, like a thick fturdy piece of tann d Leather. Lined 
within with a mold fmooth and thin Membrane. The Ca¬ 
vity all over even, or without any Sepiment: fhewing it to 
have been fill’d up with only one large Fruit. 
A Great SCALLOP’D LOBE 3 or rather part of it. Of 
kin to that deferibed and figur’d in Bauhinus (d) by the ^ ^ 1 112 
Name of Lobus Brafilianus ingens Siliqua Acacia forma. 
The whole Lobe , is above two feet long 3 where broadeff, 
near four inches, flat; and compofed of fix or feven 
Joynts, as Bauhinus calls them 3 rather Cells, fo rounded 
or fcallop’d on both Edges, as to look like fo many 
Joynts.
