Notes on the above table. — Dioscorea sp. nov. is the species enumei'ated by 
Koorders as D. glabra Roxb., but winch is a distinct undescribed one according 
to Dr. Prain in lit. and wbicli lias also been found in the Philippines. Ole- 
(Utsehia rolfeiYid.; G. celebica Koord., is a synonym. Pterocarpus echinatus Pers. 
{P. vidaliauus Rolfe) is also known from Salajar Island, south of Celebes.' 
Wallaceodend/ron celebicum Koord., a monotypic genus, first found in Celebes and 
later discovered in the central Philippines. PeinivardtiodcndroH merrillii Perk., 
a genus of two species, one Celebes and one Philippine. Koordersiodeiulron 
pinnatum (Blanco) Merr., a monotypic genus known from the Philippines, Celebes, 
and New Guinea. Gubiliu. blancoi Blrune, a monotypic genus known from Luzon, 
Celebes, Boeroe, and Ceram, Ctibilia riim.phii Blunie being a synonym. Anoni- 
panax philippinensis Harms., a genus comprising two species, one Celebes and 
one Philippine. Vaceinium. micro phyllum Blume, see page 221. 
Whereas the Celebes connections are very strikingly shown in the above 
table, the semi-temperate or continental element in the highlands of 
nortliern Luzon is nearly as prominent, as is sliown liy the following one. 
The latter undoubtedly is far from complete and therefore, when more 
extensive collections are made and onr jiresent material has more 
thoroughly been worked over with reference to Asiatic types and com- 
pared with them, the number of species will undonlitedly lie greatly 
enlarged. 
The nortltern element in the Pliilippine flora . — In the following table, 
as in the preceding, the cross (-|-) indicates that the species is found in 
Luzon and in the region for which the sign is entered, whereas the 
dash ( — ) means that the Philippine species is represented by a closely 
related form in the region indicated, or, in the last cohimn, that the 
general generic distribution is northei-n and not IMalayan. The majority
