Tlie following localiti&s of this plant are added to tliose whicli I gave in 

 the former publications. 



HxB. Urai, Karajjin, Kin-aru, Bongari, 

 Buisan. 



The sjiecies is widely distributed in For- 

 mosa, nortliwards from Kelung as south as 

 Km-aru and South Cape ; hut does not extend 

 to any higher elevation than that of 3000 ft. 



Pothos Warburgii Exgl. (in Bot. Jahrb. 

 XXV. p. 2) is very liliely to he the same spe- 

 cies as Pothos Seemannii. Judging from the 

 ilescription, I think, the former is a mere form 

 of the hitter with a smaller spadix. So far, 

 P. Seemanni is the only species of the genus, 

 that we have seen in Formosa.
