DOUBTFUL AND EXCLUDED SPECIES 



Freycinetia graminea Blume; Naves Novis. App. (1882) 286; Usteri 

 Beitr. Ken. Philip. Veg. (1905) 130. 



This Javan species is not known from the Philippines, both of the above 

 records being undoubtedly based on erroneously identified specimens. 



Freycinetia insignis Blume; Vidal Cat. PI. Prov. Manila (1880) 46; 

 Naves Novis App. (1882) 286. 



This Javan species certainly does not occur in the Philippines; from 

 the local name cited by Vidal his specimens probably were Pandanus 

 sabotan Blanco.
