250 SPECIES BLANCOANAE 
Illustrative specimen from Manila, Luzon, December, 1913 
(Merrill: Species Blancoanae No. 225). 
TRICHOSPERMUM Blume 
Eroteum lanigerum Blanco Fl. Filip. (1837) 440 (sp. nov.); ed. 2 (1845) 
307; ed. 8, 2 (1878) 205=TRICHOSPERMUM LANIGERUM (Blanco) 
comb. nov. (Trichospermum trivalve Merr.). 
Fernandez-Villar made no attempt to reduce this species, but 
Blanco’s description applies unmistakably to Trichospermum 
trivalve Merr., and I have no hesitation in adopting Blanco’s 
specific name for this species. Eroteum lanigerum Blanco is 
not included in Index Kewensis. 
Illustrative specimen from Rizal Province, Luzon, October, 
1916 (Merrill: Species Blancoanae No. 1032). 
GREWIA Linnaeus 
Mallococca parva Blanco Fl. Filip. (1837) 443 (sp. nov.) =Grewia mallo- 
cocca Blanco op. cit. ed. 2 (1845) 810; ed. 3, 2 (1878) 209, non 
Linn. f.=GREWIA MULTIFLORA Juss. 
This species is very common and widely distributed at low alti- 
tudes in the Philippines, its most common Tagalog name being 
danglin as cited by Blanco. 
Illustrative specimen from Antipolo, Rizal Province, Luzon, 
October, 1913 (Merrill: Species Blancoanae No. 547). 
Mallococea crenata Blanco FI. Filip. (1837) 442 (sp. nov.), non Forst.= 
Grewia ? multiflora Blanco op. cit. ed. 2 (1845) 309; ed. 3, 2 (1878) 
209, non Juss. =GREWIA ACUMINATA Juss. (G. umbellata Roxb.). 
This species is widely distributed in the Philippines at low 
and medium altitudes. The Philippine form seems to be iden- 
tical with the Malayan Grewia acuminata Juss. 
Illustrative specimen from Union Province, Luzon, June, 1913 
(Merrill: Species Blancoanae No. 4). 
Helianthemum triflorum Blanco Fl. Filip. ed. 2 (1845) 309 (sp. nov.) ; ed. 
8, 2 (1878) 208 (non Grewia triflora Walp.) =GREWIA STYLOCARPA 
Warb. in Perk. Frag. Fl. Philip. (1904) 104. 
Blanco’s species was erroneously reduced by Fernandez-Villar 
to Archytaea vahlii Choisy=Archytaea alternifolia (Vahl) — 
Hochr., of the Theaceae, but Blanco’s description does not at — 
all agree with this species, and moreover no representative of 
Archytaea is known from the Philippines. Grewia stylocarpa 
Warb. is very common and widely distributed in the Philippines - 2 
at low and medium altitudes, and Blanco’s description applies 
to it. It has very many recorded native names, but the nearest 
approach to iring, as cited by Blanco, is camiring. vee
