158 DR. O. STAPF ON THE FLORA OF MOUNT KINABALU. 
SONERILA BORNEENSIS, Cogn. in DC. Monogr. vii. 509. 
, var. SETULOSA, Stapf, n. var. Folia breviora, latiora, tenuiora, supra setulosa, 
subtus in nervis adpresse hirsuta. 
At 3000 feet (Haviland, 1285). 
I have not seen the type of this species, but I believe that I recognize it in several 
specimens collected by Dr. Haviland near Kuching. 
The plant from Kinabalu differs in the characters indicated above; yet the speci- 
mens from Kuching show a considerable variability in the shape of their leaves, which 
brings them in one specimen very near to the variety setulosa. The indumentum is also 
exactly of the same kind, but it is much scantier and there are hardly any bristles on the 
upper surface of the leaves. The species approaches closely S. Beccariana, Cogn.
