I have followed J. J. Smith in the synonymy as given above, and in the 
reduction of the genus Chloradenia to Cladogynos, The genus has not 
previously been reported from the Philippines, and I am now able to 
extend its range still farther, as C orientalis is undoubtedly represented 
by Robinson 1S21 from Nha-trang, Annam, Indo-China, March 16, 1911. 
Previously known from Java, Timor, Celebes, and Kisser.
