British North Borneo, Sandakan, Villamil 200, April 

 9, 1916, from cultivated trees, locally known as tarap. 



I cannot distinguish this Bornean form from the Philip- 

 pine Artocarpus odoratissima ^Blanco, and have accordingly here 

 reduced Beccari's Artocarpus tarap as a synonym. Artocarpus 

 odoratissima, Blanco, is widely distributed in Mindanao in 

 cultivation, there known as marang, and is also known from 

 several localities in Mindoro, there known as oloy.
