  Caption label no. 8 on mounted board. "Nonda plum. Parinara nonda. 'We proceeded in our course, traveling over sandy ridges … a great many trees of moderate size, of rather pendulous habit, oval lanceolate exstipulate leaves, loaded with an oblong yellow fruit, having a rough stone inside; the part covering the stone has, when ripe, a mealy appearance, and very good flavour. I considered from its appearance it was the fruit Leichhardt called the nonda, which we always afterwards called it; we all ate plentifully of it'. W. Carron, 23 September 1848".
