8. F. indica Linn. Sp. Pl. ed. 2; pt. 2, 1514 (in part), 
1762-1763. There is great uncertainty as to the typical form 
of F. indica, since Linneus referred plants of India, Africa 
and Ameriea under this same name. Most subsequent authors 
attach the name to specimens from the Malayan Peninsula 
and Archipelago which they believe to answer best the 
various descriptions and figures. It is very possible that ours 
is nearly identical to the Malayan form, except in the smaller 
size of its leaves and in the more numerous primary nerves. 
Number 8007 was collected in the vicinity of Baguio near 
the base of bluffs. It is a spreading 8 m. high tree, with 
dull brick red fruits and bright green foliage. 
9. F. umbrina n. sp. A large much branched and spreading 
tree, 10 m. high; ultimate branches rather numerous, covered 
with a smooth brown bark. Leaves ovate to obovate or elliptic, 
acute at the apex, obtuse at base, 3 to 4.5 em. wide, 6 to 9 em. 
long, eoriaceous, smooth and shining on both sides, with en- 
tire edges; nerves not prominent though equally visible from 
both sides, numerous, parallel, submarginally united, the 
midnerve very prominent beneath, straw colored; petiole glab- 
rous, 1 em. long, persistent to the blade but deciduous at 
the base leaving small oval scars; bud scales sharply aeumi- 
nate, brown, glabrous, equalling the petiole. 
Receptacles sessile and ebracteolate, usually in pairs from 
the axils of the leaves, elongate obovoid, apex depressed, 
hard, dull yellow or umber colored, glabrous, 1 em. long, 7 
mm. in diameter, bases gradually tapering, not terete but 
obscurely angular or irregular in shape; male, gall and 
fertile female flowers in the same receptacle; staminate 
ones subsessile, few and concealed beneath the umbilical 
scales, 15 mm. in length, its single stamen completely en- 
veloped by 3 smooth dark brown coriaceous oblanceolate 
perianth segments; filament very short; anther 0.5 mm. long, 
subeordate; gall flowers 3 mm. in length, long pedicellate, 
bearing a short style, obovoid, subtended by 3 distinct en- 
tire otherwise similar segments; fertile female subsessile, its 
subtending perianth similar, with a very slender subtermi- 
nal style bearing a dilated stigma; ovary 1 mm. in diameter, 
nearly globose; interior surface densely set with narrowly 
. acuminate rather slender scales.
