MERRILL. 
(Cuming 160//), in which he has been followed by later authors, Baker, F.-Villar, 
and Vidal. I have examined the specimen in the Kew Herbarium, and it seems 
to be .comparable with Merrill 319, cited above. Unfortunately my specimen is 
in flower, but identical forms bearing both flowers and fruits, have the latter much 
exceeding the calyx, while C. chinensis has a short pod, which is not exserted. It 
seems probable that Cuming’s specimen is really referable to C. ferruginea, and 
that typical C. chinensis Linn, has not been as yet found in the Philippines.
