the upper surface being densely and uniformly covered with ra- 
diate and scattered cystoliths ; its very diffuse, repeatedly dichot- 
omous male inflorescences; and the peculiar disposition of the 
flowers, a solitary sessile one at each ultimate fork, the others in 
small few-flowered heads. 
CUDRANIA Trecul 
CUDRANIA GRAN Dl FOLIA sp. nov. 
Frutex scandens, glaber, vel ramulis junioribus le viter adpresse 
pubescens; foliis chartaceis vel subcoriaceis, ellipticis, usque ad 
15 cm longis, bre viter acuminatis, basi acutis ad rotundatis, ner- 
vis utrinque 6 ad 8, perspicuis; fructibus globosis, densissime 
puberulis, in siccitate 1 ad 2 cm diametro. 
A scandent glabrous shrub, or the younger branchlets spar- 
ingly appressed-pubescent. Branches terete, in the specimens 
examined unarmed, pale-brownish, shining, minutely lenticellate. 
Leaves chartaceous to subcoriaceous, elliptic, olivaceous, some- 
what shining, the larger ones up to 15 cm long and 8 cm wide, 
the lower surface paler than the upper, apex rather prominently 
acuminate, the acumen often short, abrupt, base acute to 
rounded ; lateral nerves 6 to 8 on each side of the midrib, prom- 
inent, curved-ascending, anastomosing, the reticulations dis- 
tinct; petioles 1.5 to 2 cm long. Fruits globose, axillary, solitary 
or in pairs, when dry 1 to 2 cm in diameter, their peduncles 5 
mm long or less, grayish-brown when dry, densely and uniformly 
puberulent.

A species manifestly allied to Cudrania javanensis Tree., from 
which it is distinguished by its much larger leaves. 
GYMNARTOCARPUS Boerlage 
GYMNARTOCARPUS WOODII (Merr.) comb. nov. 
Artocarpus woodii Merr. in Philip. Journ. Sci. 3 (1908) Bot. 221; 
Elm. Leafl. Philip. Bot. 2 (1909) 623. 
This species is manifestly referable to the genus Gymnartocar- 
pus, in which it is here placed, and is very closely allied to the 
Javan G. venenosa (Zoll.) Boerl., the type of the genus. 1 In fact, 
a critical examination of a large series of Javan and Philippine 
specimens may show that the two species are identical. I have
