VoL 2 EUPHORBIACEAE 407 



Palawan, Luzon (Sorsogon), Elmer 12695, 17290, 17282, 17347. In 

 forests along streams, altitude about 150 m. Endemic, but to be compared 

 with C. minahassae Koord.

The first specimen cited in Elmer's original description is his 13175, 

 which is Taraktogenos heterophylla (Blume) Van Slooten; the description 

 of the flowers must be eliminated from his description. Under the cir- 

 cumstances I interpret the second specimen cited, 12696, as the type of the 

 species, as it is a Cyclostemon. Reduced by Pax and K. Hoffmann to 

 Drypetes cumingii Pax & Hoffm.
