NEYRAUDIA Hook. f. 



Neybaudia madaqabcabsnsis (Kunth) Hook, f.j Merr. in Philip. Journ. Bci. 



1 (19CNB) Suppl. 381, 



This species was admitted on the strength of identifications made by Vidal, 

 and Ceron, based on ('inning 628, and Vidal 4017. I have examined both in the 

 Kew Herbarium, and iind them to be referable to 1'lnagniites karka (Retz. ) Triii. 

 Y eyraudia madag as o a renait must therefore be excluded from the Philippine flora. 



ANDROPOGON Linn.

Here enumerated to all attention to the reduction of the monotypic genua 

 Garnotielhi. The type of Garnoticlla philippiurnsis in the Kew Herbarium, is 

 identical with Andropogon leptos, and is a true Andropogon. Dr. Stapf, to whose 

 attention 1 called the matter, concurs in this reduction. To be sure of the identity 

 of the Philippine plant with Andropogon leptos Steud., 1 later examined the type 

 of Steudel'a species in the Berlin Herbarium, and found the determination to be 

 correct. 



CYPERACE7U. 



FIMBRISTYLIS Yahl. 



Fimbristylis CYMos.v R. Br. ; Clarke in Philip. Journ, Sci. 2 (1907) Bot. 97. 



This species must be excluded from the Philippine flora, as the specimen in 

 the Kew Herbarium, on which the record was based, bears a printed label with 

 the date 1831, and is from Cuming's first collection from the southern Pacific, 

 and not from the Philippines. Cuming's Philippine plants were distributed ten 

 years later.
