GUTTA TRAP, a substance evidently allied to gutta percha and caoutchouc, employed at Singapore in the manufacture of bird-lime. It is the inspissated juice of an artocarpus; and it is highly probable that there are several similar vegetable productions, such as the mangegatu (Ficus indica), from Visagapatam, which might advantageously be introduced into commerce, and employed in the arts for purposes similar to those for which caoutchouc and gutta percha are now so extensively employed.
