REVISION OF PHILIPPINE COMBRETACEiE. 
647 
This species, although remarkably uniform in vegetative and floral characters, 
shows some variation in its fruits, which have from two to four wings, one of the 
Cuming specimens showing 2- and 3-winged fruits on the same plant. From an 
examination of cotypes of both of Presl’s species, before me, I am unable to 
distinguish them, and hence have included both under the first specific name. In 
my first consideration of Philippine Terminalia 2 both of the species described by 
Presl were misinterpreted, as neither the original descriptions of the species, nor 
cotype material was then available in Manila. T. polyantha was reduced to 
T. catappa, to which it is not at all closely allied, while the specimen referred to 
T. parviflora does not represent that species. Later 3 T. polyantlia was referred 
by me with doubt to T . comintana, which it resembles strongly in its inflorescence, 
and closely in its leaves, but which has entirely different fruits. 
Endemic. 
11. Terminalia quadrialata Merr. in Philip. Journ. Sci. 4 (1909) Bot. 301. 
This species is represented by a number of specimens from southern Luzon, 
Masbate, and Samar, but the flowers are as yet unknown. It is apparently 
universally known as Toog in the regions in which it is found. 
Endemic.
