[From the Supplement (Vol. V)]

As pointed out briefly in the reprint, many plants grown as Cassia corymbosa belong to a different though related species, easily distinguished from that species by its leaflets being rounded at the apex. The correct name for this species would appear to be C. candolleana Vogel (syns C. obtusa Clos (1847), not (Roxb.) Wight (1844); C. closiana Phil.; C. bicapsularis var. chilensis Benth.). It is a native of central Chile, in cultivation as C. corymbosa as early as 1901.
