700 LEAFLETS OF PHIAIPPINE BOTANY [Vor. II, Arr. 40 
Sprawling over shrubberies in gulches of the cogon forma- 
tion at 1000 feet. The Bagobos call it ‘‘Balintodok’’. 
Possibly this is D. luzonensis Vog. I have seen no fruit- 
ing specimens from the Philippines which can with safety and 
aceuracy be classed identical with those from Celebes. 
Dalbergia davaoensis Elm. n. sp. 
Tree; stem 10 m. high, 4 dm. thick, erooked and subte- 
rete; branehes mostly above the middle, erookedly rebranched, 
rigid, widely spreading and forming a flattish crown; wood 
moderately hard, gnarly, whitish with minute reddish streaks; 
bark thick, gray, sealing iu plates, yellow beneath the epi- 
dermis. Leaves alternatingly scattered along the more or less 
pubescent young twigs; rachis strigosely fulvous, 1.5 dm. long, 
ascending or horizontally spreading; leaflets likewise alternate, 
submembranous, dull green above, horizontally spreading, paler 
or subglaucous beneath, oblong elliptic, the average ones 3 
em. long, one half as wide across the middle, rounded at 
the apex, base obtuse or rounded, occasionally subcuneate, 
with appressed fulvous hairs on both sides; petioles 3 to 5 
mm. long, similar pubescent; midvein prominent beneath, the 
lateral ones very obscure and about 10 to 15 on each side, 
the faint reticulations more evident on the upper surface. 
Inflorescence ascending, 5 to 8 cm. long, axillary, branched 
from the middle, the peduncle tomentose; branchlets slender, 
divaricately spreading, densely covered with a fuliginously 
colored matrix; pedicels 2 mm. long; calyx 3 mm. long, 
turbinate, the outside similarly pubescent, the lower tooth 
much longer and acuminately pointed, the lateral one acute to 
obtuse and quite short, the upper one broadly rounded; petals 
blue; banner ovately rotund, abruptly constricted into the stipe, 
apex entire or notched, the lamina 1 cm. long; wings and 
keels about the same size, equally stipitate, the wings with 
a small auricle at the base and their apices rounded, the 
keels more or less united along the lower sides and api- 
ces acute; stamens 10, all fertile; filaments in 2 groups of 
5 each, united two-thirds the length, the ascendingly curved 
free ends subequal; anthers 0.25 mm. long, a trifle wider; 
| ovary hairy, upon a slender pilose stipe, terminated by &
