APPENDEX §. 
Some Plants Collected on Mr. Moulton’s expedition to 
Batu Lawi. 
seein NE RILEY, O:ahG., ERS: BEC. 
The little collection sent by Mr. Moulton contains some plants 
of considerable interest. Notably perhaps the Rhododendrons. 
Borneo appears to be quite rich in these beautiful plants, of which 
the collection contains no less than seven; of these one is a Kina- 
balu, species, 2. cuneifolium, Stapf., and another is not distinguish- 
able from R. jasminiflorum, Stapf., of the Malay Peninsula. The 
connection of this flora with that of Mt. WKinabalu is further 
evidenced by the presence of Pentaphragma aurantiaca, Stapf., 
previously only known also from that mountain. The remainder 
of the plants are typical mountain species of Borneo, except Bau- 
hinia Finlaysoniana, Grah., a rather rare Malay Peninsula species.
