Dlospyros Lotus Fruits (S.P.I. No. 40024), Natural Size. 
"A variety of the 'ghoorma' having much larger fruits 
than the ordinary type, while their color is yellowish. 
Some of these fruits look so much like miniature Jcaki per- 
simmons that one wonders if D. Jcaki could not have been 
derived from this species in the remote past." Photograph

cription of this fruit.
