Notes: | Label source: Letter reads: 'I have compared the two specimens of wood labelled 'Zebra Wood Connarus quianensis, Lamb., Brit.Guiana, Holtzappel' and 'Muinacatiana, Center Lobium sp, Paxa , CB Brown with those labelled 'Astronium Fraxinifolium' and Gatead, o, Astronium sp?, Cordova, Mexico, 1867, Hugo Finck' and i think it quite possible, or even likely, that the Zebra Wood and the Muinacatiana may be species of Astronium.
