Kwangtung Province, Loh Fau Mountain (Lofaushan), Merrill 107 63 

 (type), 10826, August 12 and 17, 1917, on wet grassy slopes and in damp 

 forested ravines, altitude 1,000 to 1,100 meters, rare. 



This species is well characterized by its habit, its older and somewhat 

 woody stems being terete, the younger parts and branches being rather 

 sharply 4-angled; its lanceolate, slenderly acuminate, slightly scaberulous, 

 few-nerved leaves; and its rather lax cymes, the corolla lobes being about 

 three times as long as the corolla-tube. This species is probably as closely 

 allied to Hedyotis acutangula Champ, as to any other; but it is abundantly 

 distinct from Champion's species, which is by far the commonest represent- 

 ative of the genus found on Loh Fau Mountain.

This form has been included in the rather polymorphous Morinda um- 

 bellata Linn., but I consider it to be specifically distinct. The specimens 

 cited closely match Bartling's type, a fragment of which is before me, as 

 well as Cuming's material on which Morinda cuyningiana Vid. (Lucinaea 

 cumingiana Vid.) was based. The species is otherwise known only from 

 northern Luzon and the Batan and Babuyan Islands.

 The specimen agrees closely with the descriptions and with Hongkong 

 Herbarium 1715, from Hongkong, and Henry 89 from Formosa. The 

 generic name Webera is untenable under all rules of botanical nomen- 

 clature, hence the adoption of the generic designation Tarenna.
