in Parinarium with doubt, and expresses the opinion that, when mature 
fruits are known, a separate genus might be formed with advantage for 
the species, apparently not realizing that two generic names, Angelesia 
Korth. and Trichocarya Miq., had already been proposed for an identical 
species. 
Angelesia splendens Korth. is represented by the following material:

PARINARIUM Aublet 
PARINARIUM VILLAMILII sp. nov. 
Arbor alta partibus junioribus inflorescentiisque exceptis 
glabra; foliis coriaceis, oblongis, acuminatis, usque ad 16 cm 
longis, nervis utrinque circiter 12, basi subtus 2-glandulosis, 
nervis reticulisque utrinque minute scaberulis, ramulis junioribus 
stipulisque longe adpresse ciliato-hirsutis, inflorescentiis axillar- 
ibus, racemosis (vel paniculatis?) , adpresse pubescentibus ; fruc- 
tibus ellipsoideis, 2.5 ad 3 cm longis. 
A tree reaching a height of 27 m, glabrous except the in- 
florescence and the younger parts. Branchlets slender, terete, 
dark reddish-brown and somewhat glaucous, the very young ones 
appressed-ciliate-hirsute with long, rather pale hairs, similar 
hairs on the stipules, younger petioles, and near the base of the 
leaf on the midrib beneath in young leaves. Leaves oblong, coria- 
ceous, pale when dry, 12 to 16 cm long, 4 to 8 cm wide, rather 
prominently acuminate, the acumen obtuse, base acute to nearly 
rounded, with two small glands on the lower surface near the 
junction with the petiole; lateral nerves about 12 on each side 
of the midrib, prominent on the lower surface, curved, anastomos- 
ing, these and the reticulations minutely scaberulous on both 
surfaces ; petioles 5 mm long or less, at maturity quite glabrous ; 
stipules oblong-lanceolate, acute or obtuse, about 1 cm long, with 
scattered, appressed, long, pale hairs. Racemes (or panicles?) 
axillary, appressed-pubescent, in fruit up to 9 cm in length. 
Fruit ellipsoid, brown, 2.5 to 3 cm long (immature), prominently 
verruculose, the pedicels stout, pubescent, about 5 mm long, the 
persistent sepals pubescent on both surfaces, the tube villous 
within, stamens apparently at least 30.

Villamil, June 9, 1914, forested slopes, altitude about 80 meters. 
Among the Philippine species most closely allied to Parinarium laurinum 
A. Gray, but entirely different in vegetative characters.
