 Calanthe triplicata Ames in Philip. Journ. Sci. 2 (1907) Bot. 326, 

 Orch. 2 (1908) 159, non Orchis triplicata Willem. 

 Luzon (Apayao, Kalinga, Bontoc, Benguet, Nueva Vizcaya, Pampanga,

 piz. Antique), Negros (Oriental Negros), Leyte, Mindanao (Camaguin 

 Island, Zamboanga, Dapitan, Lanao, Bukidnon, Cotabato, Davao), Sibutu. 

 A common and very widely distributed species in the Philippines. Terres- 

 trial at 60 to 3,100 m altitude. 



It has been deemed advisable to adopt the name C. furcata for the Phil- 

 ippine material as there is no question as to its identity. As pointed out 

 by J. J. Smith, in Merr. Interp. Rumph. Herb. Amb. (1917) 170, the 

 combination C. triplicata Ames is untenable as Orchis triplicata Willem.,
