“Hab. in insula Luzonia” Presl. 
Perhaps not a Philippine plant, or possiblj^ a much-dwarfed form of Sporoholus 
diandriis Beauv. Scribner, who has examined Haenke’s specimen on -which the 
species was based, makes no statement regarding the validity or relationship of 
the species.

“Hab. ad portum Sorzogon” (Luzon) Presl. 
Judging from the description, a very eharacteristic species. I have seen no 
Philippine material that agrees with it. Perhaps not a Philippine plant.
