| Among recent collections from the evergreen forests of Mysore State in southern India, material was found of Capparis cleghornii Dunn which had only been known from the original collection made by Cleghorn in 1846 and from a Stocks specimen from “Kanara”. Further scrutiny of fresh collections from the type locality established the identity. Mr M. Jacobs of the Rijksherbarium, Leyden, who is engaged in a study of die genus, informed us that little material was known and that he never had seen a fruit. The original description by Dunn is quite brief. A more detailed description is given below, based on living material which accounts for the larger sizes of the parts than are found in dried specimens. A considerable amount of collections have been made and a... |

I (1824) 247—248 had proposed the new name of C. roxburghii for the former basing it on Roxburgh’s specimen in the Banks herbarium under the manuscript name of ‘C. aguba’. Incidentally, ‘aguba’ is also the vernacular name used by Roxburgh in his Flora Indica and this manuscript name was used only by Roxburgh before he described the species as Capparis corymbosa. De Candolle mentions of having seen a type specimen in the Banks Herbarium, now in the British Museum, but this specimen could not be traced. Subsequently Jacobs (1965) while monographing the Asiatic species of... |
