JANUARY 25, 1911] GARCINIA FROM SiBUYAN ISLAND 1049 
common seacoast Psychotria. Number 14 collected by Sr. Garcia 
at Baler in 1902 is a good match and which the natives 
called ''Calumbisan." Named after its first discoverer. 
Closely resembling G. urophylla Scort. from Malay which 
however has more stamens in its flowers, and leaves with 
fewer lateral nerves besides not being glandular and punctate. 
Its section is Hebradendron, not previously known in our 
archipelago. 
Garcinia binucao (Blco.) Chys. 
Field-note:—A small slender tree, in red compact soil 
covered with humus, of forested ridges from 1000 to 3000; 
stem terete, 4 to 7 inches thick, 15 to 25 feet high; 
branches mainly toward the top, ample, divaricate, freely 
rebranched, the ultimate ones lax, suberect and relatively 
short; wood soft, sappy white, odorless, bitter; bark red- 
dish brown mixed with gray, smoothish, obscurely lenticell- 
ed or when old scaling in thin plates, yellow beneath the epi- 
dermis, the inside lighter yellow and exuding freely a sim- 
ilarly colored sticky juice; leaves mainly horizontal or de- 
scending, coriaceous, dark green above, much lighter beneath, 
nearly flat. ''Bagalot-de-pinta" is the vernacular Visayan 
name. 
Represented by number 12561, Elmer, Magallanes (Mt. 
Giting-giting), Sibuyan, May, 1910. 
This species was repeatedly met in well drained soil of 
the subalpine forests, but not found in flower nor fruit. In 
the field it is easily recognized from the other species and I 
feel quite certain as to its name. It produces an abundance 
of latex which the natives gather for painting purposes and 
calking “‘bancas’’ their canoes hewn out of logs. 
Garcinia rhizophoroides Elm. n. sp. 
Erect tree; stem erect, at least 6 dm. thick, 12 m. 
high or higher, branched toward the top only, buttressed 
toward the base and with short thick prop-roots, terete, not 
straight; wood very soft, murky white or dirty so, tasteless 
and odorless; bark brownish, smoothish, 2 em. thick, light
