and to it must also be referred the type of the genus, Bikkia 

 grandiflora Reinw., which up to the present time I, as well as 

 other authors, had supposed to be identical with Portlandia 

 tetrandra. To the section Eubikkia, in addition to B. philip- 

 pinensis and B. tetrandra, B. mariannensis is to be referred, as 

 well as an unpublished species from the Palau Islands. To 

 Bikkiopsis are to be referred all of the species from the Moluc- 

 cas and New Guinea and some of those from New Caledonia.
