276 SPECIES BLANCOANAE 
Laurus serrata Blanco Fl. Filip. (1837) 319 (sp. nov.); ed. 2 (1845) 224; 
ed. 3, 2 (1878) 55 (non Casearia serrata Macf.) =CASEARIA CRE- 
NATA Merr. in Philip. Journ. Sci. 1 (1906) Suppl. 99. 
This species is widely distributed at low and medium altitudes 
in Luzon. Although Blanco’s description is short and imperfect, 
there is no doubt as to the correctness of this reference of his 
species. It was reduced by Fernandez-Villar to Casearia glome- 
rata Roxb., a species not known from the Philippines.

coccinea Merr.). 
This variable species is widely distributed in the Philippines 
at low and medium altitudes, commonly occurring in dry thickets. 
Among the three forms considered by Blanco I can see no reason 
for recognizing more than one species. Passiflora zucca and 
Passiflora parviflora are certainly the same species and repre- 
sent the form with 3-lobed leaves; Passiflora coccinea is the 
commoner form in the Philippines, the leaves not lobed. Some- 
times plants are found presenting only entire leaves, sometimes 
only 3-lobed leaves, but frequently both entire and 3-lobed leaves - 
are found on the same branch. Of Blanco’s species considered | 
above, the first was reduced by Fernandez-Villar to Modecca ~ 
palmata Lam., the second to M. cardiophylla Mast., and the third _ 
to M. heterophylla Blume, none of which is definitely known 
to occur in the Philippines. S
