Abstract
AT a recent meeting of the Royal Society of Arts L an interesting paper on East Indian copals and iamars was presented by Mr. A. F. Suter, which has appeared in Jour. Roy. Soc. Arts, vol. 77, April 19. The distribution of resiniferous plants is world-wide. Of the resins known to commerce the two chief groups are the copals and the damars. This division of the major resins is somewhat arbitrary, being based upon the difference of their physical characteristics, but is, however, quite a useful one.
