Ceodes umbellifera Forst. Char. Gen. 71, pi. 71. r776.
Specimens referable to this species were collected on Kauai,
on the ridge west of the Hanapepe river, and on the ridge be-
tween the Hanapepe and Wahiawa rivers, &t elevations of about
2000 feet. The fruit of these specimens was not at all visdid,
and did not stick to the paper. But on Oahu, on the edge of
the plateau above Manoa, specimens were seen, the fruit of
which was very viscid, sticking tenaciously to anything with
which it came in contact. Hillebrand says,: “ The fruiting
perigone of all three.species exudes a very viscid glu& ' * * *
It will stick fast to paper in the herbarium for years.”, -
