Fortunella crassifolia, Swingle. Meiwa Kumquat. Figs. 1563, 1564. A much-branched shrub with very short spines or none: differs from F. margarita in the more rounded frs. 1-1 ½ x 1-1 ½ in., with 6 or 7 cells, not 4 or 5. and in the thicker trough-shaped lvs. sometimes more abruptly pointed toward the tip, and paler green below: petioles narrowly winged, not merely margined. It differs from F. japonica in the If. characters and the slightly oval frs. with 6 or 7 cells and a thicker peel. It differs from both species in having much broader oval or ovate pulp- vesicles.—This kumquat recently intro. into the U. S. by Japanese nurserymen is as yet but little known.
