{Cuming 160 'f) , in which lie has been followed by later authors, Baker, F.-Villar. 

 and VidaL I have examined the specimen in the Kew Herbarium, and it seems 

 to be comparable with Merrill 319, cited above. Unfortunately my specimen is 

 in flower, but identical forms bearing both flowers and fruits, have the latter niucli 

 e.KceedinfT the calyx, while C. chinensis has a short pod, which is not exserted. It 

 seems probable that Cuming's specimen is really referable to C. fcrniginea, and 

 that typical C. chinensis Linn, has not been as yet found in the Philippines.
