X,C, 3 Merrill: Erroneous Credits to Philippine Flora 183 
regarding the labelling of each set of exsiccata that he has to 
handle. 
Rolfe * has recently published a short account of the localities 
of Cuming’s Philippine plants, but he gives merely the inclusive 
numbers that are from the Philippines, and those of the collection 
that were from extra-Philippine localities. As the localities, 
islands, and provinces in which the Philippine specimens were 
collected are frequently of great importance in our local work on 
the Philippine flora, the following list copied from that prepared 
by Cuming himself at the request of Sir William Hooker, and 
preserved in Hooker’s correspondence at Kew, is here presented : 
1-434. Cryptogams, apparently distributed with properly prepared 
labels. Most of the species are from the Philippines, a few 
from Malacca, Singapore, etc. 
435-667. Calauang, Province of Laguna, Luzon. 
678-694. Province of Tayabas, Luzon. | 
695-702. Island of Corregidor [a small island at the entrance of Manila 
Bay].

750-833. Province of Tayabas and the mountains of St. Cristobal and 
Maijaijai [i. e. Mount Banajao], Luzon. 
834-947. Province of Albay, Luzon. 
948-1039. Province of Pangasinan, Luzon. 
1040-1112. Not localized, but probably from the Province of Zambales, Lu- 
zon, judging from the species represented.

1183-1260. Province of North Ilocos [Ilocos Norte], Luzon.
