The pistil of the blue is thicker than that in the red and the bastard. The style in the bastard is slightly curved. In the bastard the stamens are smaller than in the others, and there is less differ- ence between them. It does not appear from the data at hand that the differences noted exceed the ordinary individual variations for the species of Haematoxylon. the three varieties are shown in figure 2, which was made from drawings sent by Mr. Fawcett, of the Jamaica Botanical Gardens.
