Klong Munsé, Klong Prao, Klong Sarlakpet in the jungle (n. 435, 718, 741a). 



Area: One of the most common species of the whole family; it is widely 

 distributed in the Ghats southwards from Bombay and in Ceylon ; from the 

 Eastern Himalaya its area extends to Tenasserim, the Malayan Peninsula, Ar- 

 chipelago to Borneo.

 Var. siamense Becc. Malesia II, 167, t. 48, fig. 12 — 17. 



A very common epiphytic plant all over the area explored especially on 

 trees near the sea (n. 200 d, 576). 



Area: The species is widely spread from the peninsula of Malacca to 

 Java , Borneo , Celebes and is the only species of the genus which goes as far 

 as to Cochinchina and Siam; the variety has already been found in the gulf of 

 Siam by Pierre (n. 45) on the Island of Phu-Quoc.

Jungle near Klong Munsé. A shrub (n. 278). 



If indeed Triosteum Mrsutum Roxb. Fl. Ind. I, 538 is identical with this 

 plant, the name is to be changed. It is an Eastern species which ranges from 

 the Eastern Himalaya to Borneo.

 Fl. Brit. Ind. III, 189. 



Jungle near Klong Munsé. A shrub (n. 837). 



Area: Generally the plant is supposed only to be a Ceylon one and a 

 citizen of the Deccan Highlands; but surely it also grows in the Malayan Ar- 

 chipelago : I have seen it in several specimens from New Guinea.
