THE FLORA OF MOUNT PULOG. 
301 
Gentiana luzoniensis Merr. ; scattered, prominent only when the sun is 
' shining, the flowers being then open. 
Wahlenbergia bivalvis Merr. ; apparently not abundant. 
Myriactis humilis Merr. ; only near rock outcroppings. 
Anaphalis contorta Hook. f. ; scattered. 
Cirsium luzoniense Merr. ; scattered. 
A total of 37 species on an area of 2,000- hectares is a decidedly 
poor flora. It is probable that the above list represents practically 
all the species represented in the summit grass lands, at least those that 
produce flowers during the first six months of the year. About 25 of 
the total number represent northern or Asiatic types, while associated 
•with these are several species that manifestly represent Australasian 
types, Schomus apogon , S. axillaris, Uncinia, Ranunculus, and Halor- 
rhagis. But a single species, Isachne pangerangensis can be considered as 
a Malayan type.
