In the above table the most striking affinities are shown 
between the floras of the Philippines and Celebes, and between 
the Philippines and Australia, while the New Guinea element, 
combined with that of New Zealand and southern Polynesia, 
is of considerable interest. One of the very surprising results 
of this comparative table is the relatively very strong Austra- 
lian element in the Philippine flora as compared with other 
parts of Malaya, and the fact that a large number of species, 
and in two cases monotypic genera, are, so far as is known 
at present, confined to Australia and the Philippines, not having 
as yet been detected in any of the intervening islands. 
Taking up the matter of the Celebes element, it will be 
noted that no less than fifty-seven species are confined to the 
Philippines and that island, and these include six genera, either 
monotypic, or represented by but two or three species, that 
are not known elsewhere. Doubtless many of these species will 
later be found in other islands near Celebes, for a considerable 
Number are already known from the Philippines and from some
