Thirteen species are recognized, of which two are found in the Philippines, 

 /. temata (Blanco) Dunn (=/. luzoncnsis (Presl) Merr.), and /. platyandra 

 Dunn, the former confined to the Philippines and Formosa, the latter to 

 southern China, Hongkong, Indo-China, and the Philippines. In regard to the 

 former, Illigera luzoncnsis is the oldest valid name although the original 

 description and plate are hoth erroneous in some details. I have examined 

 the type in the Prague Herbarium.
