Excluded and Doubtful Species 



Canarium commune Linn. Introduced from the Moluccas in 1796 

 by Christopher Smith, and planted as a roadside tree occa- 

 sionally in the towns. 



Canarium glaucum Bl. King, I.e. 491. The only specimens given 

 here by King are also given for C. piirpiiraseens Benn. 



C. LiTTORALE Bl. Bijdv. 1164. In Kunstler 's collection (Perak 

 2000 to 2500 ft. altitude, Larut No. 6998) is a fruiting speci- 

 men of a.large-leafleted glabrous tree with a rather long fruit, 

 2 in. long in a large calyx cup. King refers it to C. parvifoHuni, 

 which it cannot be. . It closely resembles C. littoral e Bl. of 

 Java, but the single specimen is insufficient to be certain of.
