Fig. 620. — White Ironwood. I'm^ IV. CUPANIA GENUS CXJPANIA [PLUMIER] LINN^US Species Cupania glabra Swartz JBOUT 35 species of Cupania are known, all trees and shrubs, natives of tropical America. They have un- equally pinnate leaves, with toothed leaf- lets and no stipules; the flowers are very small, regular, polygamous or dioecious, and are borne in large axillary clusters; the fruit is a 3-lobed, 3-celled leathery capsule, usually containing 3 seeds; Cu- pania americana Linnaeus, a common tree of Haiti, Cuba, and Porto Rico, is the type of the genus. Cupania glabra is known in the United States only from Pine Key, south- em Florida, where it was collected many years ago by Blodgett, and has not since been observed there. It is common in Cuba and Jamaica and occurs also in Fig. 621. — Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Britton, Nathaniel Lord, 1859-1934; Shafer, John Adolph.
