I can see no reason for considering Ochrocarpus obovalis (Miq.) Safford a 
to be specifically distinct from O. excelsus Vesque. Our Guam material ae 
presents both obovate and elliptic leaves on the same branchlets. It man- ¥ 
ifestly represents quite the same species as Ridley 68 from Christmas Island : 
(south of Java), distributed as Ochrocarpus ovalifolius Anders.
