 Tetranthera bancana Miq. FL Ind. Bat. 1 1 (1858) 950. 

 Amboina, Hitoe messen, Rel. Robins. 1998, November 1, 1913, borders of 

 clearings, altitude about 200 meters, locally known as halaor puti. 



The specimen agrees closely with Miquel's description, and with material 

 from a cultivated tree in the botanic garden at Buitenzorg, Java, but may 

 eventually be found to represent an allied but distinct form.

 ing over bushes at from an altitude of 800 meters to the summit, 1,127 

 meters. 



Both of the specimens, manifestly representing the same species, are 

 sterile and are indeterminable except by comparison with authentically 

 named specimens. Possibly they represent an undescribed species. The 

 relatively large pitchers are very characteristic. 



(To be concluded.)
