DOUBTFUL AND EXCLUDED SPECIES. 
DALBERGIA MIMOSELLA (Blanco) Prain in Ann, Bot. Gard. Caleutta 107 
(1904) 42. 
Amerimnon mimosella Blanco FI. Filip. (1837) 568, ed. 2 (1845) 393, ed. 3, 
2:357. 
Dalbergia lanceolaria F.-Vill. Novy. App. (1880) 67, non Linn. 
This species is known only from Blanco’s imperfect description, and I have 
suggested above that it is the same as Dalbergia minahassae Koord., although 
Blanco’s description is not entirely in accord with the characters of that species. 
The material on which it was based came from Tala, near the boundary between 
the Provinces of Rizal and Bulacan, Luzon, and according to Blanco is there 
known as macapil. Careful collecting in that locality, with especial reference to 
the native name, may serve to determine the identity of the species, but until 
such material is secured I do not think that the species should seriously be 
considered. 
DALBERGIA CASSIOIDES Wall.; A. Gray Bot. Wilkes U. 8S. Explor. Exped. (1854) 
457; Merr. in Philip. Journ. Sei. 3 (1908) Bot. 82. 
The Philippine record is based on a sterile specimen collected at Caldera, 
Mindanao, and is manifestly an erroneous identification. I have examined the 
specimen, which is preserved in the U. S. National Herbarium, and think it is 
probably a form of D. ferruginea Roxb. D. cassioides Wall. is a synonym of 
D, stipulacea Roxb., a species that is not known from the Philippines. 
DALBERGIA ZOLLINGERIANA Mig. (=D. parviflora Roxb.) ; F.-Vill. Nov. App. 
(1880) 67. Not represented by any extant botanical material frem the Philip- 
pines. 
DALBERGIA DiscoLor Blume; F.-Vill. 1. ¢. A species at present known only 
from Borneo and Celebes; not represented by any extant Philippine material. 
DALBERGIA SPINOSA Roxb.; F.-Vill. 1. ec. A species of India and Indo-China; 
not definitely known from the Philippines. 
DALBERGIA VOLUBILIS Llanos in Mem.° Acad. Ciene. Madr. 3 (1858) 502; 
F.-Vill. 1. ¢. 67, non Roxb. Unidentifiable. 
DALBERGIA LANCEOLARIA Llanos 1. ¢.; F.-Vill. 1. ¢., non Linn. Unidentifiable; 
probably a species of Derris. 
According to strict rules of priority the name Dalbergia is untenable for this 
genus as several proposed ones are older. O. Kuntze has adopted the generic 
appellation Amerimnon P. Br. (1756), and transferred to it all the species of 
Dalbergia known to him. Dalbergia Linn, f. (1781) is here retained in ac- 
cordance with the list of nomina conservanda of the Vienna Botanical Congress.
