Note 102 — Chapter XXII · EMIN PASHA
Reading edition
The distribution of the branching Hyphæne Fan palm is very peculiar. It is found right across the Sahara, south of latitude 25°, to the vicinity of the Atlantic. It avoids the better watered regions of Nigeria and the Bahr-al-Ghazal, but on the east extends across Somaliland and down the coast to Mombasa.—H. H. J.
