THE. FLORA OF MOI^NT TIALCON. 259 



9 to 17 mm. long, 3.5 to 5.5 mm. wide, tlie apex rounded or obtuse, the 

 base gradually narrowed and somewluit decurrent, the midrib not prom- 

 inent above, very prominent beneath, the margins thickened; petioles 

 In-oad, 1 to 2 mm. long. Staminate spikes solitary in the upper leaf- 

 axils, few, cylindrieal, 1 to 1.5 cm. long, 3 mm. in diameter, densely 

 many flowered, glaucous when young. Pistillate flowers and fruit not 

 seen. 



Borders of thickets on the mavoins of open heaths at 2,400 ni. alt. (No. r)C)72). 



Podocarpus pilgeri Foxworthy, noni. nov. P. celchicus Warb. Mons. 1 (1!)00) 

 192; Pilger 1. c. 78, non P. celehica Hemsl. in Kew Bull. (1896) 39. 



In forests at 2,100 ni. alt. (No. 5754). 



Tlie specimens are sterile but match closely material with fruit, collected on 

 Mount Malindang, Mindanao, by Means' d Hutchinson, May, 1906, No. 4673, 

 which I have referred to the form described by ^S^arlurg, both agreeing closely 

 with a fragment of the type kindly supplied me by Dr. Engler. Both Warburg 

 and Pilger overlooked the fact that Hemsley had previously utilized the specific 

 name celehica, and Eemsley's species is not included by the later author in his 

 recent monograph of the family. 



Podocarpus sp. § Eupodocarpus. 



In forests at 900 m. alt. (No. 5615). Material too imperfect for accurate 

 identification at this time. 



PHYLLOCLADUS Rich. 



Phyllocladus protractus (Warb.) Pilger in Engl. Pflanzenreich 18 (1903) 99. 

 P. /(i/pop7(i///« var. pro/rac^a Warb. Monsunia. 1 (1900) 194. 



In forests, exposed ridges at 1,300 m. alt. (No. 5788). 



Widely distributed on the higher mountains of the Philippines from northern 

 Luzon to southern Mindanao. The specimens reported from Mount Dulangan, a 

 spur of Halcon, by Re-ndle,^ collected by Whitehead, as P. hypophylla are probably 

 referable to Warburg's species.

Scandent, the ])ranches about 7 mm. thick. Leaves lanceolate, 20 to 

 40 cm. long, 1.5 to 2 cm. wide, the apex acute or acuminate, the base 

 slightly narrowed, clasping, the margins below and towards the apex
