scattered from the base, ascending, 5 cm. long or less, similar 
in color, rigid, rebranched toward the distal end; ultimate branch- 
es 1 em. long or less, articulate and subtended by a ring of bract 
vestiges; pedicels glabrous, at least 5 mm. long, strict, subtended 
by similar bracteoles and also articulate, severally clustered at 
the distal ends of the ultimate branches, erect or ascending; 
calyx glabrate, the basal portion thick and united; the 5 segments 
fimbriate or finely ciliate along the much thinner entire margins, 
glandular punctate in the middle region, nearly flat, ovately 
rotund, 2 to 3 mm. across, imbricate, cup shaped but ultimately 
spreading; corolla united at the base, 5-lobed, glabrous, almost 
eglandular, thiek especially the middle portion, the overlaid 
margins much thinner, elliptieally oblong, 6 mm. long by one half 
as wide across the middle, obtuse or acute at apex, shallowly 
concave on the upper side; stamens 5, opposite the petals and 
inserted upon their throat; filaments glabrous, 1 mm. long, broadly 
expanded toward the base; anthers introrse, thick, obscurely 
compressed, 3 mm. long, 1.5 mm. wide below the middle, biauric- 
ulate at the base, subbasifixed, apex truncate and terminated 
by a sharp mucronate point; ovary superior, globose, glabrous,

Type specimen 12430, A. D. E. Elmer, Magallanes (Mt. 
Giting-giting), Province of Capiz, Island of Sibuyan, May, 1910. 
Discovered on a wind swept forested ridge of well drained 
red soil mixed with boulders at 2750 feet of the mountain after 
which it is named. ‘“‘Grasos” is the Visayan name. 
The inflorescence and floral organs are distinctly different 
from A. darlingii Merr. collected by Forester F. W. Darling in 
the mountains of northern Luzon.
