MAS ET PULLAT: Le Vignoble. Paris, 1876-77. On page 73, tome I, we find a figure of a Muscat of Alexandria with round berries, and which undoubtedly is nearly related to the Gordo Blanco. It is not the true Muscat of Alexandria. As synonyms are given Gordo Blanco and (Don Simon Roxas is referred to as authority) also Uva Zibeba. The latter is undoubted the same as our Muscat of Alexandria. Another synonym is Muscatel Romano, which again is only another name for Gordo Blanco. The French authors have undoubtedly everywhere confounded the two varieties. In the same work, page 31, tome I, we also find the White Corinth referred to as the currant grape of Zante, which is erroneous.

Mentions “Kishmish” seedless raisins from Arabia. NOUVEAU DUHAMEL ou Traité des Arbres et Arbustes. Paris, 1815. On pl. No. 65, tome 7, figures Muscat d’Alexandria. This variety differs from our Muscat of Alexandria by having the berries less tapering, like the “Malaga.” On pl. 72, tome 7. there is a figure of White Corinth, but the bunch is too loose to be characteristic.
