  Description - [No description provided.]

• Discussion

  This well-known Indian fruit tree, doubtless introduced into Ecuador during colonial times, is represented only by inferior seedling forms similar to those of most other tropical American countries. Grafted mangos have probably not been produced in Ecuador as yet, with the exception of a few at the Hacienda Payo, near Naranjito, in the Province of Guayas.
