This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1913 edition. Excerpt: ... Pittosporaceae. or white, tube 10 to 12 mm or less, lobes about 6 mm, stamens nearly as long as the tube, anthers linear sagittate; pistil short, ovary sessile, oblong, tomentose; capsule globoseovoid, somewhat flattened, the thick woody valves 2.5 mm, wrinkled or rough or sometimes smooth; seeds purple, compressed and angled, closely packed in two rows in each cell, testa dull, minutely tuberculate-rugose. A tree 20 feet in height with stiff, stout, ascending branches. It is a somewhat variable species; the inflorescence is not aIways terminal, but also axillary and even cauline in specimens from Haleakala, Maui. The writer collected specimens of this species from the type locality southern slopes of Haleakala, Maui, where the tree is not at all common. It also grows near Kaupo at an elevation of about 5000 feet. The leaves in the writer's specimen are much larger than those figured by Asa Gray. Hillebrand's var. /S. from Kau and Kona agrees well with the writer's material from Lanai. The genus Pittosporum is exceedingly well represented on Lanai, the species confertiflorum evidently being very variable, as there are as many different forms as there are Pittosporum trees and mie would be naming individual trees. It is indeed puzzling, the question of specific distinction in the Hawaiian Pittosporums, thanks to the insects on which the plants depend for pollination. Hillebrand's typical var. p. occurs in nearly all the valleys of Lanai. as Kaiholena, Mahana, Koele, and also on the ridges. It differs from the species in its smaller leaves and lanceolate sepals, and is a small tree about 18 feet in height. In some of the Lanai specimens the capsules are deeply wrinkled, and quadrangular, with perfectly flat valves 3 cm. each way; one...

Seller's Description:
Used-Acceptable. Good reading copy but not pretty to look at. No DJ. The cloth covering boards is stained, faded and has a nickle sized tear near hinge and spine. The edges are soiled. pages have underlining and highlighting. former ownership marks. This is an ugly but acceptable book because of it's scarcity. A good reading copy.
