This species is manifestly allied to the preceding one, but differs in its 
longer leaves and more numerous leaflets which are regularly crenate- 
dentate and although rounded, are never cordate at the base. 
PROTIUM Burman 
PROTIUM CONNARIFOLIUM (Perk.) comb. nov. 
Canarium connarifolium Perk. Frag. Fl. Philip. (1904) 92. 
This species, of which Dr. Perkins had no fruiting material, and of 
which she described only the male flowers is shown to be a representative 
of the genus Protium by additional material. It is not closely allied to 
Protium javanicum Burm., from which it differs in vegetative characters 
and its very short inflorescence. The fruits are apparently subglobose, 
when mature about 1.5 cm in diameter, ultimately 2- or 3-valved, and with 
1 to 8 pyrenes, the pyrenes hard, about 8 mm long. It is further distin- 
guished from Canarium by its 4-merous flowers. The species is repre- 
sented by the following material, all from Palawan: Merrill 787 (cotype), 
Bur. Sci. 758, 754, 787, 866 Foxworthy, For. Bur. 21604 Agama, from 
Iwahig, Alphonso XIII, and Mount Victoria, flowering February to May. 
The genus is new to the Philippines.

A tree about 15 m high, entirely glabrous. Branches terete, 
light-gray, somewhat striate when dry. Leaves 25 to 35 cm 
leng, the leaflets 7, oblong-elliptic to oblong-lanceolate, 12 to 18

and shining when dry, entire, the apex slenderly caudate-acumi- 
nate, acumen blunt, 1.5 to 2.5 cm long, the base acute, equilateral 
or nearly so; lateral nerves 12 to 14 on each side of the midrib, 
prominent, anastomosing, the reticulations lax, rather distinct; 
petiolules 1 to 2 cm long. Panicles axillary, pyramidal, up to 
15 cm long, branched at or from near the base, the branches 
few, spreading, the lower ones 5 to 7 cm long. Flowers about 
8 mm in diameter, greenish-yellow, their pedicels 2 to 3 mm 
long. Calyx shallow, 2.5 mm in diameter, the lobes rounded,

2.5 mm wide and about 2.2 mm long, acute or obtuse, glabrous. 
Disk annular, thick, glabrous, obscurely undulate; stamens 6, 
the filaments broadened below, 0.5 mm long, attached to the outer 
part of the disk; anthers 0.5 mm long. Ovary ovoid, glabrous,
