Amboina, Hitoe messen, Rel. Robins. 1916, October 10, 1913, on trees 
and limestone boulders, altitude about 150 meters. 
The specimen appears to be typical Procris laevigata Blume, rather 
than Procris lignescens (Hallier f.) ( Elatostema lignescens Hallier f.) 
which has been credited to Amboina by Hallier f. 
India and Ceylon to Malaya and the Philippines.

Amboina, Soja, Rel. Robins. 1915, August 2, 1913, in forests, altitude 
about 400 meters; locally known as assayu utan.

Amboina, Kati-kati, Rel. Robins. 1913, October 17, 1913, near streams, 
altitude 70 meters. 
This species has been reduced by Weddell to Elatostema integrif olium 
(Don) Wedd., of India, but the Malayan specimens appear quite different 
from Indian material. 
Widely distributed in Malaya and the Philippines, perhaps extending 
to tropical Asia.
