PHILIPPINE LINCCIERA 



by 



A. D. E. Elmer 



Linociera luzonica (Blm.) Vil. Chionanthus luzonica Blm. 



Fairly well scattered over our archipelago, but especially 

 in the northern and middle portion. 



Linociera cumingiana Vid. 



This is very similar to the above species and may be 

 identical with it. 



Linociera philippinensis Merr. Mayepae pallida Merr. and 

 Linociera pallida Merr. not L. pallida K. Sch. 



Extends from middle Lnzon southwards. The type is in 

 tfower, my number 13569 in fruit is an exact match. 



Linociera racemosa Merr. Mayepae racemosa Merr. 



The type is from mount Mariveles and apparently this 

 species is not common. 



Linociera acuminatissima Merr. ms. 



So far only known from the island of Palawan, collected 

 by Mr. Curran.
