Balsamocitrus gabonensis, Swingle. A little-known tree or shrub: Lvs. narrowly lanceolate, simple, with short petioles: vigorous young trees, when they have reached a height of 8 or 10ft., begin to show trifoliolate Lvs. with relatively small lateral lfts. from one-third to one-half as long as the terminal lft. and like it acute at both ends; terminal lft. sessile : fls. unknown : fr. nearly globular, slightly pear- shaped, with a thick woody rind.—The natives remove the contents through an opening at the stem end and use the empty fr. as a powder-flask. Native to the M'fan or Pahouin country in N. French Congo and S. Kamerun where the fr. is known to the French residents as "poire a poudre" (powder-flask). This species grows very rapidly under greenhouse conditions. It has been grafted successfully on the tabog (Chaetospermum glutinosa), a related tree native to the Philippines, and may prove of value as a stock for citrous fruits on account of its vigor and healthiness.
