Narrative
(No. 22.) Seed of a shrubby tree 20 to 30 feet high. Wild in hinterland of Mozambique Company's territory. Rubber of about same quality as Landolphla kirkii. Mr. W. II. Johnson, the agronomist of the Mozambique Company, thinks the species a rather valuable discovery. It grows with LandolpMa kirkii and the rubber exported through Beira probably consists of the two gums mixed.

Notes by O.W. Barrett.

Distribution. A native of the woods of German East Africa, in the vicinity of Dar-es- Salaam and Mbaffu.
