or less pubescent segments; stamineal tube at the base sur- 

 rounded by 5 hard glabrous wedge shaped 1 mm long dark 

 red or brownish glands. 



Type specimen number 13956, A. D. E. Elmer, Cabad- 

 baran (Mt. Urdaneta), Province of Agusan, Mindanao, Sept- 

 ember, 1912. 



Collected this big tree in the forested saddle between 

 Duros and Cawilanan peaks at 3500 feet altitude. Its Ma- 

 nobo vernacular name is "Badabogon." 



Rather uncertain as to the right family and may pos- 

 sibly belong to Flacourtiaeeae or rather to Icacinaceae.
