XEROSPERMUM NORONHIANUM, Blume, var. “ Balong Ayam.” 
Fairly large tree. Fruit yellow, ovoid-globose, nearly smooth. Таһап River, near 
Kwala Tenok. | 
The fruit is good eating. This plant differed from the ordinary form of the species, 
known usually as * Rambutan Pachat," in having the fruits not muricate, but rather 
dotted, like those of the * Mata Kuching” (Nephelium malaiense, Griff.). It was greedily 
devoured by the coolies. Hiern (Fl. Brit. Ind.) gives the fruit 1-2-lobed. І have never 
seen it otherwise than simple. 
The typical form of this plant also was met with in the Tahan woods. 
NEPHELIUM LAPPACEUM, Linn. “ Rambutan.” 
Occurred half wild, and possibly also really wild, in the Tahan district, big trees 
occurring in the jungle in many places. Тһе fruit is, however, carried about from 
the villages on the Tembeling River, where it is cultivated by the aborigines, and 
germinating seeds were often found in their encampments. Several forms were met 
with: one poor form with small sour red fruits occurred in the jungles at Kota Glanggi; 
another form in the Tahan woods had large yellow fruits with very long processes. 
N. MUTABILE, Blume. “ Pulessan.”  . 
Occurred as an escape in some of the woods on the Pahang River.

lower down in the Tembeling and Pahang Rivers.
