spGciss with, succulent fruits, Northern Australia. IVhile, therefore, in 
the table of distribution the occurrence of the species in the large divi¬ 
sions of the globe are given on the left hand side, on the right hand the 
distribution within South-Eastern Asia itself is given. Further, since 
the geographical position of these islands indicates that they are an inte¬ 
gral portion of the Andaman chain, and as the Andamans altogether form 
as it were part of the debatable land between Indo-Chiua and Malaya, 
the occurrence of the species there is also noted. In all cases where the 
occurrence of a species in the Andamans is, at least so far as we yet 
know, only due to its pi’esence in the Coco Islands, the species in ques¬ 
tion is indicated by [ ] brackets. The other debatable territory, so far 
as Malaya and Indo-China ai’e concerned, is Tenasserim, and in all cases 
where the occurrence of a Coco Island species in Indo-China depends 
entirely on its occurrence in Tenasserim it is marked by the same [] 
brackets in the Indo-Chinese column. Similarly when, as is frequently 
the case, a species is only African in the sense of occurring in the Mas- 
carene Islands, the same [] brackets are used in the African column.
