MYSORE, CANARA, AND MALABAR.
Jani, Grewia.
There are three species called by this name, the Asiatica, the Orien-
talis, and that which I have named Jania. The timber of none of
them is useful.
Bili Tali, Bilitaliumfarinosum, Buch. MSS.
In the Telinga language this tree is called Tdlamaliki. It grows to
a large size, and its timber was said to be good; but I found it to
be white, soft, and very perishable.
Betta Tali, or Betta Tovary, Bombax gossyppinum.
A large tree. Its timber becomes somewhat durable, if kept in
water for some time after being cut; but without this precaution
it is little worth.
Nai, or Gag Nerulu.
This cannot be of the same genus with the following Nerulu, as it
has alternate serrated leaves. A large tree, the timber of which is
much used.
Rudrashu Nerulu, Calyptranthes Jambulana Willd.
Also much used. This is the tree from whence the Brdhmans derive
the name of this earth.
Betta Padri, Bignonia chelonoides.
A small tree; but its timber makes strong posts and beams.
JVullay Padri, Bignonia spathacea.
Timber little used.
Navulady, Mail elou, Hort. Mai. V. t. 1.
A large tree, and durable timber, which takes a polish, and is used
for furniture, planks, beams, and posts.
Shivuli,
A small but good timber tree.
Topala, Mimosa leucophlea, Roxb.
The bark, when newly cut, has a strong disagreeable smell, like
that of the Mimosa Indica, E. M. It grows to be a large tree, and
produces strong timber for posts and beams. The bark is used by
the natives in distilling spirit from Jagory.
