Notes: Label source: Ridley; Flora Malay Peninsula, I p. 245. 22.9.1923. British Museum (Natural History) Mr J Hewitt (who now lives in S. Africa, at Grahamstown (I think)) offers this vegetable fat (extracted by pressure from the seeds of 'Teglam' in Sarawak), to the Dept of Botany, but requests that if the Keeper does not want it, will he pass it on to Kew where Mr Hewitt believes there is no sample of it?
