Copeland, Edwin Bingham. Fungi esculentes Philippinenses. {Ann. Mycol. 
(1905) 3: pp. 25-29.) 
Twenty-one species described in the following genera: Lycopcrdon, Copri- 
nus, Panaeolus, Agarious and Lepiota. In Govt. Lab. Publ. 28 (1905) pp. 
141-140, the above paper is reprinted in English, with the addition of three 
half-tone plates under the titlg "New Species of Edible Philippine Fungi." 
Dlels, L. Droseraceae. {Das Pflanzenreich 26 (1900 pp. 1-136.) 
A single genus, Drosera, is represented in the Philippines by the following 
species : D. indica L., British India to Australia, D. spathulata Labill., 
southern Japan and China to East Australia and New Zealand, and />. peltuta 
Smith, British India to Australia. 
Engler, A. Araceae-Pothoideae. {Das Pflanzenreich 2\ (1905) pp. 1-330.) 
The following species are credited to the Philippines: Pothos longif alius 
Presl, Philippines to Java, Sumatra and the Moluccas; P. scandens Linn., 
British India to Malaya; P. inaequUaterus (Presl) Engl., Philippines and 
Sumatra; P. .ovatifolius Engl., endemic; P. philippinensis Engl., endemic; 
P. luzanensis (Presl) Schott, endemic; Pothoidium lobbianum Schott, a 
monotypie genus, Philippines, Celebes and the Moluccas. No form of Acorus 
is credited to the Archipelago, but the genus is represented in Luzon by 
forms referred to A. calamus L., but of which I have seen only sterile 
specimens. The Philippine form is possibly referable to A. grumineus Soland.
