H. propinqua, Schot, to which Engler refers the plants col- 

 lected by Korthals and Motley quoted above is probably 

 this species which is common in the Malay peninsula. 



H. Beccariana, Engler. Sarawak (Beccari). 



Engler describes this as allied to H. rostrata Griff, and 

 H. Miqueliana Schott and suggests that the three might

 based on a plant collected by Korthals in Southern 

 Borneo.
