These lobes are in reality nothing but the otherwise simjjly recurved sides of the 
horizontal corona scales, which in the ease of the above species are produced 
beyond the dorsal apex of the scale itself.

Luzon, Province of Bataan, Mount Mariveles (1213 Borden) June, 1904. In 
forests at 050 m. 
Evidently one of the species of the Hoya jxirasitica Wall., group, and closely 
related to that species. However, it can be readily recognized by its long leaves 
and rather narrow straight corona scales.

corona scales.
