Notes
In spite of the additional collections since the first edition no progress has been made in the elucidation of the taxonomy of Pandanus in W. Africa. Further collections should show the femaleinflorescence or fruit, apical and basal portions of a leaf or the whole leaf may be pressed concertina-wise; male inflorescences are only useful when associated, with females growing in the vicinity. Mature fruits may be collected and sectioned longitudinally.
