convenient form what is now definitely known regarding the 

 Bornean flora; by giving the place of original publication of 

 each species admitted; by including all bibliographic references 

 and synonyms of each species so far as such references 

 appertain to Borneo; by citing under each the various collectors 

 who have secured the species in Borneo; by adjusting the 

 nomenclature and synonymy where possible to do so; and by 

 giving the approximate geographic distribution of each species 

 whether it be endemic or of wider range. To the actual resident 

 of Borneo the list would have been of distinctly greater utility 

 had it been possible for me to add the native names of plants 

 in actual use in Borneo, but unfortunately comparatively few 

 data regarding the native names of Bornean plants are available 

 to me.
