Cogniaux erroneously excluded Gymnostemma integrifoliolum Cogn. as a 

 synonym of Alsomitra integrijoliola Hayata. In Philip. Jour. Sci. 7: Bot. 



353. 1912,1 called attention to the fact that Gynostemma elongatum Merr. 

 is a synonym of Alsomitra integrijoliola Hayata and that the "fruits" of 

 Gynostemma integrijolioliim Cogn. as described by Cogniaux were merely 

 globose galls infested with insect larvae. Although I hâve seen no authentic 

 material representing Alsomitra tonkinensis Gagnep., I do not see how this 

 can be distinguished from A. integrijoliola (Cogn.) Hayata from the pub- 

 lished data appertaining to Gagnepain's species.
