Type specimen 11342, A. D. E. Elmer, Todaya (Mt. Apo), 
District of Davao, Mindanao, August, 1909. 
Discovered this large and beautiful species in good well 
drained soil of a forested ridge of mount Calelan at 6000 feet al- 
titude. "Magatungal" is the vernacular Bagobo name. 
Not E. benguetensis Elm. because inflorescence more nu- 
merously branched ; calyx slenderly turbinate; leaves more rigid, 
drying grayish brown instead of reddish brown, broadly elliptic 
or subrotund not oblong, both ends blunter especially the apex 
which is terminated by a short bluntly rounded acute point; 
nerves more humerous, more at right angles, straight and with 
thin tips united into a distinct submarginal vein.
