flowers in one set of receptacles, deep red; male flowers in 
the vicinity of the umbilieus, 2 mm. long, short pedicellate, 
with 3 brown glabrous united segments which finally become 
separated and coarsely lacerate at the obtuse apex; filament 
caudate, thickened; single stamen ultimately exerted, with 
1 mm. long dorsally recurved anther; gall flowers 3 mm. 
long, pedicellate, subtended by a similar 1.5 mm. long 
perianth; its ovary subglobose or obovoid, shining, with a 
short rigid subterminal style bearing a disc like stigma. 
This shrub or small tree has some resemblances to 
F. umbonata Reinw. in Blm. Bijd. 454, 1825-6, from the 
Moluccas, but in that species the leaves are coriaceous, 
adpressed pilose and short petioled; receptacles short pedun- 
culate, scabrous and ebracteate. It is the most common of 
the figs in ravines and along streams of the pine belt of 
Benguet Province. Number $8017 was collected at Baguio 
and as a subalpine species it has a wide range in the 
mountainous section of northern Luzon.
