4. Gmelina palawensis H.J.L. Verb. Mai. Arch. (1919) p. 224. 



This species is unknown te me. This species and the following one 

 have a close resemblance with G. macrophyila R. Br. Benth. and perhaps 

 they will appear to be identical with it. The only difference I found, was 

 the glabrous ovary.
