prominent beneath, spreading-ascending, anastomosing near the margin, 15 to 20 
on each side of the midrib; petiolules 5 to 10 mm. long, densely ferruginous 
pubescent. Flowers unknown. Panicles in infrutescence short, stout, axillary, 
about 7 cm. long, very densely ferruginous pubescent. Drupe broadly ovoid, 
strongly 3-angled, about 3 cm. long, 2 cm. thick, strongly and densely wrinkled

ferruginous hairs, densely ferruginous pubescent at the base, the apex blunt. Per-

(123 Barnes) January; (1254 Whitford) May. Province of Rizal, Luzon (422 
Ahern’s collector) February. In forests 00 to 200 m. According to Barnes the 
tree yields a considerable amount of pitch, and according to Ahern’s collector the 
seeds are edible. 
A species apparently related to Canarium hersamifolium Perk., with which it 
was at first identified, but distinguished from that species by its ferruginous 
pubescent leaves, somewhat larger fruits, and other characters.

(1154 Whitford) March. On exposed ridges at 900 ni. Endemic. It is pos- 
sible that No. 290 Whitford should also be referred here, but in some respects 
it' seems closer to Canarium villosum.
