| Notes: | Label source: I beg to forward you specimens of the tree named locally Tira (Tee ra) and under separate cover chippings from it including sap wood and bark. The tree was formerly v. abundant of hill slopes between 2500 and 4000 ft, going a good deal high, er, but has not then the girth or height of those grown between these elevations. Lumber is v durable but is rarely employed on account of difficulty in working. It has not yet been described, but that is an easy point for you to decide. (From letter Mr, CA Lankester, March 31, 1911 to Mr Hill, 25th April 1911. ((Letter 223, 1911, book VI p146 | ||||
