which superficially most resemble it belong to other families, l>ut it may prove 

 to be a true Heliotropium. Llanos' species, from Angeles, Pampanga, where it 



is known as toHng-bondoe, has no other means of identification: it was reduced 

 to //. coromandclianum by Yillar. and if really known to him. may prove the 

 key to the situation. As yet, this local name does not appear in this herbarium on 

 any sheet of Boraginoceae or any species of other families suggested hy Naves' 

 plate.

 the occurrence of this genus elsewhere in .Malaya, in spite of its wide distribution: 

 Miquel enumerates both of the present species, hut apparently had not seen cither; 

 Boerlage omits the genus altogether. In the Philippines, it is almost certainly 

 introduced, although long established.

While these are the species so-called in eastern Asiatic botany, they do not 

 exactly agree with the descriptions in the Flora of British India. Our 0. mi- 

 cranthum differs in having slightly larger calyx-lobes, and nearly all the flowers

 in diameter: Philippine C. furcatum has more pubescent leaves than described,
