LEAFLETS OF PHILIPPINE BOTANY (VoL. HI, Arr. 
India to New Guinea. 
MICROLEPIA Presl. 
Microlepia Speluncae (L.) Moore. 
Terrestial in woods, alt. 500 m., No. 10992. ‘‘Libagod.”’ 
Common throughout the Philippines. 
Pantropic and subtropical. 
Microlepia sp. Davallia villosa Don. 
In dense woods, Todaya, alt. 1200 m., No. 10472. "''Ala- 
bongan.” This fern is not M. hirta (Kaulf.) Pres of Ha- 
wal, but I am satisfied that it is D. villosa Don. Of 
real M. hirta I have seen no Malayan specimens, plants 
so determined being distinct. There is already M. villosa 
Presl—M. marginata ©. Chr—Davallia villosa Wall.,—a name 
invalid when first used in Davallia, and therefore, accor- 
ding to the concensus of opinion of my compatriots, incap- 
able of valid transfer, but still, on the same authority, now 
able to invalidate the transfer to its proper genus of the ori- 
ginal D. villosa. My disposition is to call this plant Denns- 
taedtia villosa (Don). 
New to the Philippines. 
India to Java.

same place.

Terrestrial in dense tufts in light woods, Mt. Calelan, alt. 
1050 m., No. 11641. "'Lagolay." 
Throughout the Philippines, not common.
