ARTHROPHYLLUM Blume 
ARTHROPHYLLUM CENABREI sp. nov. 
Arbor glabra, circiter 10 m alta, ramulis ultimis circiter 5 mm 
diametro; foliis superioribus usque ad 10 cm longis, 3- ad 5-folio- 
latis, vel ultimis 1-foliolatis, foliolis plerumque ellipticis, 4.5 ad 
6 cm longis, brevissime obtuse acuminatis, brunneo-olivaceis, 
nitidis, chartaceis vel subcoriaceis, nervis utrinque 3 vel 4, 
tenuibus; pedunculis circiter 4 cm longis, pedicellis 8 mm longis, 
fructibus ovoideis, 7 mm diametro. 
A glabrous tree about 10 m high, the ultimate branches about 
5 mm in diameter. Upper leaves pinnate, up to 10 cm long, the 
leaflets mostly 5, sometimes 3, or the uppermost leaves reduced 
to simple leaflets, the rachis and petiole about 4 cm long, the leaf- 
lets mostly elliptic, 4.5 to 6 cm long, 2.5 to 3.5 em wide, charta- 
ceous to subcoriaceous, very shortly and obtusely acuminate, base 
acute, brownish olivaceous and slightly shining when dry; lateral 
nerves slender, 3 or 4 on each side of the midrib; petiolules 5 to 
10 mm long. Peduncles about 4 cm long, umbellately arranged 
at the tips of the branchlets, usually, however,.with solitary in- 
florescences in the axils of the uppermost leaves, thus forming a 
somewhat leafy inflorescence. Fruits 5 to 8 in each umbel, ovoid, 
about 7 mm in diameter, their pedicels 8 to 10 mm in length. 
CEBU, Maraag, For. Bur. 28343 Cenabre & de la Cruz, March 
12, 1921. On slopes at an altitude of about 600 meters. Local 
name binglew. : 
A species well charactized by its small leaflets which are 
gradually reduced in number, at least on the uppermost branch- 
lets. In general this species seems to be most closely allied to 
Arthrophyllum pulgarense Elm. but ig at once distinguishable by 
its very few leaflets.
