RUTACEAE 199 
Pilocarpus. The generic name is derived from the Tagalog 
word lunas, one of the native names of the species. Rabelaisia 
philippinensis Planch. is a synonym. Common and widely distri- 
buted in the Philippines at low and medium altitudes. 
Illustrative specimen from Guinayangan, Tayabas Province, 
Luzon, April, 1913 (Merrill: Species Blancoanae No. 5). 
ACRONYCHIA Forster 
Melicope conferta Blanco Fl. Filip. ed. 2 (1845) 205 (sp. nov.) ; ed. 3, 2 
_ (1878) 19=ACRONYCHIA PEDUNCULATA (Linn.) Mig. (A. lauri- 
> folia Blume). 
This species is widely distributed in the Philippines, extend- 
ing from sea level to an altitude of at least 1,500 meters. The 
propriety of accepting the Linnean specific name for this species 
is doubtful. Jambolifera pedunculata Linn. Sp. Pl. (17 53) 349 is 
based first on a reference to Fl. Zeyl. 139, and second on a refer- 
ence to Bauhin Pin. 466; there is no description. In the Flora 
Zeylanica, however, there is a description, with three references 
not given in the Species Plantarum, All or most of the refer- 
ences are:to the plant commonly called Eugenia jambolana Lam., 
and the description in the Flora Zeylanica seems to refer to 
Lamarck’s species. The specimens in Hermann’s herbarium, 
on which the Flora Zeylanica was based, are Acronychia lauri- 
-folia Blume; see Trimen in Journ. Linn. Soc. Bot. 24 (1887) 
140, 142, sub numbers 139, 185.

GLYCOSMIS Correa 
‘Murraya cerasiformis Blanco Fl. Filip. (1837) 363 (cerassiformis) (sp. 
~ nov.) =Murraya exotica Blanco op. cit. ed. 2 (1845) 255; ed. 3, 2

(Lour.) Pierre. — 
Murraya lobata Blanco op. cit. 363 (sp. nov.) ; 256; 112=GLYCOSMIS 
» COCHINCHINENSIS (Lour.) Pierre. sive 
This species is very common and widely distributed in the 
‘Philippines at low and medium altitudes and is variable in its 
vegetative characters. There is no reasonable doubt as to the 
identity of Blanco’s Murraya cerasiformis and M. lobata, and 
at the same time their identity with Glycosmis cochinchinensis. 
The mature fruits are globose, about 1 cm in diameter, very 
fleshy, somewhat translucent, and pale red in color. 
Illustrative specimen from Manila, Luzon, October, 1914 
(Merrill: Species Blancoanae No. 136).
