Like the preceding species widely distributed in the Philippines, and even 
more variable than that, approaching it in some forms. The extreme form can, 
however, be readily distinguished by its broader, differently shaped leaves, which 
are broad, rounded, and biauriculate at the base, and very short petioled. It 
is unquestionably the form described by Blanco as Hypericum olympicum, on 
which Blume based his Cratoxylon blancoi, although it is probable that Blanco 
included both this, and the more common C. celebicwm, in his species. Cratoxylon 
blancoi Blume is undoubtedly very closely allied to C. hornschuchii Blume.
