Taxaceae 



by 



J. Perkins. 



Podocarpus L'Her. 



1. Podocavpus iiiibrlcatus Blurae var. Cuuiiiiiiii (Pari.) Pilger. 



Luzon Central (Loher no. 4852). 



The variety Cuminyii differs very slightly from Podocarpus 

 imbricatus and can perhaps be united with it. 



2. Podocarjuis iieriifoliiis Don. 



Luzon, Prov. Tayabas, Pagbalao (Mekkill no. 1992; in flower 

 in April 1903). 



Podocarpus neriifolius Don is a widely distributed species, 

 being found, according to Pilger, in Central Asia, China, Java, 

 Sumatra, Celebes, Borneo, Moluccas and New Guinea. It has, 

 however, never before been recorded from the Philippines, where, 

 in April 1903, it was collected by Mr. Merrill in Luzon, Prov. 

 Tayabas, Pagbalao. 



Phyllocladus Rich. 

 1. riiylloclailus protractus (Warb.) Pilger. 

 Luzon (Loher no. 5203). 



This plant from Lohek's collection (no. 5203) was determined 

 as Phyllocladus hypophijlla Hook. f. The two species resemble 

 each other somewhat, but may be easily distinguished, as the 

 leaves of Phyllocladus protractiis are never of a bluish- white 

 on the under surface. 



Taxus Linn. 

 1. Taxus haccata Linn, siibsp. Wallichiaiia (Zucc.) Pilukl-. 

 Luzon Central, Mangilquiran (Loher no. 4850).
