( 123 Barnes) January; (1254 Whitford) .May. Province of Rizal, Luzon (422 

 Ahern'8 collector) February. In forests 60 to 200 m. According to Barnes the 

 tree yields a considerable amount of pitch, and according to Ahem's collector the 

 seeds are edible. 



A species apparently related to Canarium bcrsamifolium Perk., with which it 

 was at first identified, but distinguished from that species by its ferruginous 

 pubescent leaves, somewhat larger fruits, and other characters.

 sible that No. 29G Whitford should also be referred here, but in some respects 

 it seems closer to Canarium villosum.
