This species is rather variable, and is apparently lare in the Philippines, 

 although it lias previously been reported from the Archipelago by both Vidal and 

 F.-\illar. What is apparently the earliest valid name is here adopted, as Britten " 

 slunvs that tlie ])art of the volume of Lamack's work containing the description of 

 Hf/itericioii hi/loruni really appeared in the year 1707. and not in 1781). tlie date 

 given on the title page.

A species widely distributed in the Philippines, and somewhat variable, in 

 some forms approaching Cratoxylon hlancoi Bhime. but usually readily distin- 

 guished from that species by its much narrower, differently shaped leaves, and 

 larger panicles. It is well represented by Xaves' plate, cited above. Cratoxylon 

 floribundum (Turcz.) F.-Vill., appears to be in all respects identical with C. 

 celebicum Blume, and is accordingly here reduced. The wood is considerably 

 utilized in the manufacture of charcoal, the common name for charcoal, uliny, 

 appearing in most of the native names. Common names: T.. Guyony-f/uyonf/ :
