Stachytarpheta indica Vahl Enum. 1 (1805) 206. 
Amboina, Rel. Robins. 1868, August 20, 1913, near the town of Am- 
boina, very common, locally known as biana blau. Bali, Boeleleng, Rel. 
Robins. 252b, July 7, 1913. 
A native of tropical America, now found in all tropical countries. 
STACHYTARPHETA MUTABILIS (Jacq.) Vahl Enum. 1 (1805) 209.

LIPPI A Linnaeus

VITEX Linnaeus 
VITEX PUNCTATA Schauer in DC. Prodr. 11 (1847) 687. 
Vitex hollrungii Warb. in Engl. Bot. Jahrb. IS (1893) 208. 
Amboina, Paso, Rel. Robbis. 1867, November 25, 1913, near the beach, 
almost among the mangrove trees. 
The type of Vitex punctata Schauer was from the Moluccas, and the 
Amboina specimen cited above agress perfectly with the description. Vitex 
hollrungii Warb., of New Guinea, of which a fragment of the type collection 
is before me, impresses me as being identical with the Amboina material, 
and the species is accordingly reduced to the much older Vitex punctata 
Schauer.

CLERODENDRON MAC ROST EGIUM Schauer in DC. Prodr. 11 (1847) 
666 .

I cannot distinguish this from the common Luzon and Mindoro form, 
and believe that it represents the same species. It has already been re- 
ported from Ceram by Miquel in Ann. Mus. Lugd.-Bat. 3 (1867) 253.
