province, Luzon. Dr. Warburg distinguishes his A. rubrovenia — 
from A. lanceolata Trec. in its having much larger, glabrous, — 
reddish nerved leaves which have more or less unsymmetric 
. bases; and by the star shaped pistillate inflorescence. Very 
. little known; T. E. Borden’s number 1145 from mount Marivel- 
es, Bataan province, Luzon, is referred here with some doubt.
