ultimate ones lax and somewhat drooping, their tips glabrous. 
Leaves alternatingly scattered along the branchlets, glabrous, 
quite rigid, easily breaking, flat with recurved tips, horizontally 
spreading, lucid above, much paler green beneath, drying 
greenish, entire, perceptibly inequilateral, oblanceolately oblong, 
1 dm. long, 3.5 em. wide above the middle, apex sharply acute, 
cuneate or gradually tapering from above the middle to the base; 
midvein prominently raised and whitish beneath, the 6 to 9 
lateral primary ones ascending especially the basal pair which 
runs submarginally, conspicuous, their ends strongly united; 
the secondary nerves also prominent, reticulations relatively 
so, all yellowish white and conspicuous in comparison to the 
brown interspaces; petiole usually yellowish brown scurfy, 7.5 
mm. long; bud bract 5 mm. long, glabrous, brown, sharply pointed. 
Receptacles erect from the leaf axils, solitary in pairs or in 
small clusters, globose except the truncate apex, hard, smooth, 
luteus and occasionally shaded with aurantiacus, 7.5 mm. across; 
peduncle 5 mm. long, glabrous, similarly colored, subtended at 
the base by a whorl of small subglabrous bracts; umbilicus cir- 
cularly marked, not raised, the aperture guarded by the tips 
of the inner scales; flowers apparently all fertile female, 3 mm. 
long, glabrous, some younger ones or undeveloped ones mixed 
in between the mature flowers, pale yellow; pedicel 1 mm. long, 
oblique; perianth exceeding the ovary, hyaline, splitting into 
2 or 3 parts nearly to the base; ovary subreniform, 1.5 mm. long, 
somewhat compressed, pale yellowish brown, smooth, hyaline 
crested; style smooth, 1.5 mm. long, hyaline toward the base, 
lateral or sublateral, deep brown otherwise, bearing a slightly 
enlarged oblique stigma. 
Type specimen 12831, A. D. E. Elmer, Puerto Princesa 
(Mt. Pulgar), Palawan, March, 1911. 
This sprawling or subscandent epiphyte grew about the base 
of a large tree trunk upon stony soil of wooded banks of the 
Iwahig river at 750 feet. Name after our son Anton Dambor. 
Of this unique species I found only a single plant and is 
very close to F. warburgii Elm. but not the same species. The 
following ‘are some of the chief differences. Leaves larger, 
distinctly cuneate at the base, inequilateral, with a sharp point- 
ed apex, lateral nerves more curving and forming a stout sub- 
marginal vein, with coarser reticulations and the under side of
