REVISION OF PHILIPPINE COMBRETACEJE. 643 



Native names Talisag or Dalisay in most Philippine dialects; Sp.-Kil. Almen- 

 ilras, corresponding to the "Indian almond" of English speaking people in the 

 east. 



Terminalia polyantha Presl, which was previously reduced by me to this 

 species from the abridged description given by Miquel, is in no way allied to 

 T. catappa. The specimen reported as T. catappa from Mangsi island, by A. Gray 

 in the "Botany of the Wilkes U. S. Exploring Expedition", is T. litloralis Seem., 

 and was doubtless wrongly localized on the label, as the species is a Polynesian one. 

 The sterile specimen reported also by Cray "from a small island in the Rooloo 

 Sea" as T. glabrata Forst.?. may have been T. catappa, but 1 have seen no 

 specimen. 



2. Terminalia magarapali Vidal Sinopsia Atlas (1883) XXIV, t. .',8, fig. G; 

 Merr. in Govt. Lab. Publ. (Philip.) 17 (1904) 35. 



T. proeera F.-Vill. Nov. App. (1880) 80. non Roxb. 



Alahat Island, fide Vidal. specimen no longer extant, locally known as 

 Magarapali, 



This species should prove to be a very distinct one, characterized especially 

 by its very large fruits, which are about 10 cm long. It has not as yet been 

 collected a second time.

A widely distributed endemic species, yielding the timber commercially known 

 as Calumpit. With the abundant material cited above. I am no longer able to 

 distinguish Terminalia mollis (Presl) Rolfe from T. edulis Blanco. Young speci- 

 mens of Blanco's species have exactly the same type of pubescence as has IVesl's.
