OF MT. KINABALU AND BRITISH NORTH BORNEO, 183 
Distrib. Borneo (B. N. B. Kinabalu, 11,000', Haviland, 1402). According 
to Kükenthal his C. filicina, var. saturata also occurs on some of the high 
mountains of Sumatra and Java. I have not seen any specimens outside 
Kinabalu, nor had €. B. Clarke.

Kinabalu, Kambarangau, 7000', in damp places under Leptospermum. 
Fl. Feb. 4230. Above Kambarangau, 7000—8000', on mossy tree-trunks. 
4243. Above Pakapaka, in low forest, 10,000—11,000', 4194; summit, 
123,300', in cracks of granite, 4191. 
Distrib. Borneo (B. N. B. Kinabalu, 11,000’, ZZaviland, 1403). High 
mountains of the Malay Archipelago. 
The specimens vary greatly in the length and width of the leaves and also 
in the density of the panicles. No. 4230 approaches nearest to the form 
collected by Haviland and described as C. Havilandii by C. B. Clarke, but like 
No. 4243, which has still narrower leaves, it is elearly a form conditioned by 
the nature of the station, both having grown up in damp places. No. 4191 
from the exposed summit is stunted, and the leaves are shorter and more 
rigid, whilst the Pakapaka specimen is intermediate. The specimens at Kew 
from Java and Sumatra agree very well with Nos. 4191 and 4194 except in 
so far as the utricles are less scabrid.
