The Benguet specimens are from altitudes of 1,500 in or above, while those 
from Zainbales are from 700 to 800 m. The Mindoro specimens were collected 
at an altitude of about 200 m, and differ in having smaller, thinner and less 
prominently veined leaves than the type, in vegetative characters being very 
similar to Vaccimum caudatum Warb., but they have the lanate filaments of 
V. bengiietense. A tree 7 to 12 m high.

The only speeimens of this species that I have seen are those collected by 
Cuming one of which is in our herbarium. It is very closely allied to r^ccinmm 
Unguetense Vidal, apparently differing chiefly in its persistent bracts and slightly 
more prominent calyx-teetli.

The type of this species, Vidal 1535, was from the District of Lepanto, Luzon, 
and it seems to be closely matched by the specimens cited above. T'ie_ species 
can be readily recognized by the peculiar capitate-glandular hairs of the inflores- 
cence, ttiis charactet being found in only one other known Philippine species, the 
very different V. tenuipes above described.
