Text Appearing Before Image:
nto charcoal for the manufacture of gunpowder. Aristotelia fputicosa (The Shrubby Aristotelia). A much-branched shrub, 3ft.-6ft. high. Flowers solitary, or in small cymesor racemes. Leaves linear, lanceolate to elliptic, oblong, entire, crenate orserrate. Fl. Oct.-Nov. A sub-alpine plant of the most variable habit, and extrememutability of leaf form. These changes of form may be due tothe extreme sensitiveness of the plant to alteration of environ-ment, or it may possibly be due to the fact that the plantis undergoing mutation (v. Veronica). At any rate, few ofour variable species afford more promising material forexperiment. Like so many other New Zealand plants, in oneof its stages it resembles a twisted Coprosma (v. PlagianthuHbetulinus). The leaves of the seedlings are sometimessimilar to those of A. racemosa. The leaf form of the last-mentioned species, according to Dr. Cockayne, may, therefore,possibly be regarded as typical of the common ancestralstock. THE LIME-TREE FAMILY 247

Elaeocappus dentatus (The Toothed Elceocarims). A round-headed tree, with trunk 1ft.-3ft. in diameter, and oblong-obovateleaves, with recurved margin. The leaves of E. Hookeriamts are linear, oblongor lanceolate, and the margins are flat. This distinction enables the two speciesto be separated. Maori name Hinau. Both islands. Fl. Oct.-Nov. One of the most beautiful flowering trees in the NewZealand bush. In a good season, the whole tree is coveredwith racemes of creamy, saucer-shaped flowers, each racemehaving the appearance of a spray of lily-of-the-valley.
