Altitude about 800 m. A species probably of the .section Uolocuhjx. 
Trichosporum copelandi Merrill sp. nov. 
A scandent epiphyte, glabrous except the inflorescence, with opposite, 
oblong leaves 5 to 7 cm. in length, and axillary and terminal inflorescence, 
the flowers cpiite the same as in Trichosponnii ovatum. Branches 
slender, gray, glabrous. Leaves coriaceous, 1.5 to 3.5 cm. long, the base 
rounded or obtuse, the apex acute, pale, somewhat shining, the nerves 
obsolete; petioles rugose, 4 to 5 mm. long. Peduncles axillary and ter- 
minal, solitary or fascicled, somewhat pilose, two or more flowered. 
Flowers purple, in size, shape, and pubescence quite the same as in 
Trichosporum ovatum. Capsides linear, 10 cm. long. Seeds wanting. 
Mindanao, District of Zamboanga, San Ramon (1619 Copeland) February .5, 
1905. An epipliytic vine in forests along the river at about 200 m. A species 
apparently closely related to the preceding, similar in floral characters, but 
differing in its much larger, very differently shaped leaves, longer petioles, and 
glabrous branches, the inflorescence being also lateral as well as terminal. 
Trichosporum rubrum Merrill sp. nov. 
A scandent epiphyte reaching a length of from 4 to G m., rather 
strongly hirsute pilose with pale often oppressed hairs, the leaves lan- 
ceolate to oblanceolate, the flowers red. Branches gray, the older ones 
glabrous, the younger branchlets densely appressed hirsute-pilose. Leaves 
subcoriaceous, 4 to 8 cm. long, 1.5 to 3 cm. wide, ])ale lieneath, the upper 
surface rather densely appressed hirsute-^rilose, the lower surface densely 
so on the midrili and nerves, gradually narrowed lielow to the slender 
acute base, more abruptly narrowed above to the acute apex, the margins 
entire, hirsute; nerves about 4 on each side of the midrib, ascending; 
petioles 1 to 4 cm. long, densely appressed hirsute. Floivers fascicled in 
the upper axils, the pedicels hirsute, 3 cm. long or less. Calyx hirsute, 
deeply 5-cleft nearly to the liase, the lobes linear, aliout 6 mm. long, 
1.5 nini. wide, blunt. Corolla nearly 3 cm. long, liright red, tubular, 
slightly curved, densely uniformly hirsute pilose with pale 3 mm. long 
hairs, the lobes elliptical-ovate, rounded, 4 to 5 mm. long. Filaments 
glabrous; anthers broad, 3 mm. long. Disk truncate or obscurely toothed, 
glabrous, cup-shaped, 3 mm, long. Ovary glalirous. Old capsules pale, 
glabrous, linear, 8 cm. long, the seeds not seen.
