Widely spread in India and Malaya, and extending to Japan, 
Mauritius, Australia, and Polynesia. 
We have followed the * Flora of British India’ in the synonymy 
and distribution of this species and F. articulatum. Certainly 
they are very different from each other.

Mus. Brit.; Herb. Kew. 
Common in India and Malaya. 
Sir Joseph Hooker (Fl. Brit. Ind. v. p. 225) retains V. ovali- 
folium, Wall.,as a separate species, whilst admitting that Miquel 
(Fl. Ind. Bat. i. p. 805) may have been right in reducing it to 
V. orientale, Willd. We cannot distinguish the Chinese specimens 
referred to the former from the latter.
