| Notes: | Label source: Ramy - This oleoresin has the odour of elemi and is probably the produce of Canarium colophania, Baker (Fl. Mauritius, p.44) , from which an oleo, resin is obtained in Mauritius and employed in the form of plaster as a detersive. It corresp, onds in appearance with the Mauritius elemi in the Hanbury collection of materia medica, both in giving no colouration with bromine water and in leaving crystals after solution in cold alcohol. | ||||
