Notes: Opuscular source: Letter 52, 1912, vii p103. 1/1912 New Products. From J Lewkowitsch, 71 Priory Rd, London, NW. Feb 19, 1912. Dear Sir, I thank you for the info you have given on the Xanthophyllum. I think these are X lanceolatum Boerl. A publication, has appeared in De Indische Mercuur, May 9, 1911, and the statement was added by K Gorter that large quantitites are being imported, which are coming into the market under the name of Boca Sioer. I would think, judging from commercial consideration, tha, t these seeds are X lanceolatum. The fat from the seeds is like the fat given by Gorter.
