Cissampelos discolor DC. ? var. cardiophylla A. Gray (p. 38). "Hab. snuiU 
island in the Sooloo Sea." Apparently only a form of Cismmpeios pnreira Linn., 
common throughout the Archipelago, and the Tropics generally. 
CAPrARIDACE^. 
Polanisia icosandra Wight & Am. (p. 68). "Hab. Luzon, near Man!Ha."=P. 
viseosa DC. A common weed throughout the Arcliipelago. 
Capparis aurantioides Presl (p. 70). "Hub. PlilHppine Islands, at Caldera, 
Mindanao, and the ^>ooloo Islands." Fragmentary specimens of a species some- 
what resembling Cappo/ris micracantha DC, possibly correctly identified with 
Presl's species. 
Capparis sepiaria Linn. (p. 70), "Hab. small island of the Suoloo Sea." 
The common form of the species, widely distributed in the Indo-Malayan region. 
Capparis cerasifolia sp. nov. (p. 71). "Small island of the Sooloo Sea, same 
as Cuming's No. 1008 from the Philippine Islands." This has been reduced by 
some authors to Capparis horrida Linn., but is apparently a distinct and valid 
species. The type is well matched by No. 058 Copeland, and Nos. 2152 and 
2200 R. S. Williams, from Mindanao. It is quite distinct from No. 1068 Cuming 
which Gray also I'efers here. 
Capparis odorata Blanco ? (p. 71). "Hab. vicinity of Manilla, Luzon (with- 
out flowers or fruit)." The specimen is G. micracanfha DC, a very common 
species in the Philippines,
