Mr, Knrz inadrertently itsferrtHJ bo tliia GriflSirh's No. 2056 from Ttmaeserim 
whiph ho Hays ia ofoaely allied to F. Zampongum, Miij. In my own opinion Uriffilh'fl 
Nrt. 2056 is P. Lampongum. Kan'a doacription of Jiia P. pernimiU exactly agrees 
with Griffithian Bpeciinmis from Malncofi (without any nnmber), and on some of 
these ho has written the name P. pereimile with his own iiantl. Thia species must 
therefore henceforth be cotialderod as Malayan ami nut aa Baritieae.
