The genus has only one species, an evergreen Australian shrub, with the habit of Pittos- porum and resembling that genus in having thick, leathery capsules and an indefinite number of seeds, but in Pittosporum the seeds are thicker, not so much flat- tened and not winged. £14vuni, F.

Much of their distinc- tive beauty is in the color of the petiole and rachis, which in JT. VerschaffelHi is yellow, while in H. amari- eaulis the petiole is maroon and the rachis orange. The first species also has its leaves handsomely veined with white. These two species are highly ornamental palms, and are frequently found in trade collections. They would probably be grown in greater quantities were it not for the fact that they are not very rapid growers while in a young state. They are naturally heat-loving plants, and flourish under similar treatment to that recommended for the palm commercially known as Areca liitescens, namely, a good loamy soil well enriched wit
