Nine species are natives of the Philippines. In my herbarium 

 there is a fruiting specimen collected by C. M.Weber in Agusan 

 Province, Mindanao, on the west slope of Mount Hilonghilong, 

 at 419 meters altitude, no. 90, March 28, 1911, which is appar- 

 ently an undescribed species, allied with Agrostophyllu m celebicum 

 Schltr. from Celebes, A. stipulatum Schltr. from Java, vn\dA. tri- 

 fidum from Sumatra. It has a very much branched habit and the 

 leaves are quite distinct in outline from those of any of the species 

 named. The leaves are ± 1.5 cm. long, perceptibly narrower toward 

 the tip, about 3 mm. wide near the base, and at the apex bilobed 

 with a well-developed apiculate point to the midrib, which exceeds 

 the lobes. The sheaths of the leaves are bicuspidate as in A. cele- 

 bicum, A. stipulatum, and A. trifidum. Fruit hardly 1 cm. long.
