 Aherria collector, type) July; (2172, 2779 Meyer) December, February; (2507 

 Merrill) June; (149 Barnes) January. In thickets 25 to 75 in., extending along 

 the river valley to an altitude of about 500 m. 'I'.. Taliantang, Maguilic. 



A species apparently constantly with simply pinnate leaves, distinguished 

 moreover from Lcea mtinbucina by its obovoid buds and long acuminate leaflets, 

 and from L. javanica and L. cequata by its glabrous leaves. The forms from the 

 higher altitudes are constantly with smaller leaves and much smaller cymes 

 than those from the lower regions.

(1574. 1S04 Borden) August. September. 1904. In forests at about 130 m., 

 apparently rare in the Philippines. King 1 retains ;1 s a distinct species, and ap- 

 parently correctly so. Elaeocarpua obtusua Blume, the latter species having been 

 reduced by Masters" to E. monocera Cav. Cavanilles' species is apparently 

 distinct from Blume's and endemic.
