EUTACE2E. 
Atalantia monophylla DC. (p. 234). “Hab. on a small island in the Sooloo 
Sea. (Flowers occasionally trimerous).” Specimen very fragmentary, possibly 
the same as Atalantia retusa Merr., not A. monophylla. 
Triphasia monophylla DC. (p. 234). “Hab. in mountains in the neighbor- 
hood of Banos, Luzon (without (lowers or fruit).” Apparently the young spiny 
state of Atalantia disticha (Blanco) Merr. 
Triphasia trifoliata DC. (p. 234). “Hab. in the vicinity of Manilla, Luzon.” 
Common in the Philippines. 
Sclerostylis atalantioides Wight & Arn ? (p. 234). “Hab. Mangsi Islands 
in the Sooloo Sea .... the same as No. 991 of Cuming’s Philippine Collec- 
tion.” = Atalantia disticha (Blanco) Merr., a species common and widely distrib- 
uted in the Philippines, and of which .4. nitida Oliv., is another synonym. 
Murraya exotica Linn. (p. 235). “Hab. Philippine Islands, near Manilla, 
Luzon.” The Malayan form usually so identified, common in the Philippines. 
Micromelum pubescens Blume (p. 235). "Hab. Mangsi Islands in the 
Sooloo Sea.” The specimen is M. tephrocarpum Turcz., a species doubtfully 
distinct from M. pubescens , both being common in the Philippines. 
MELIACEiE. 
Didymochiton gaudichaudianum A. Juss. ? (p. 241). “Hab. Mangsi Islands 
in the Sooloo Sea (without flowers or ripe fruit) = Uysoxylum sp., near D. 
cauliflorum Iliern. 
SAPINDACE2E. 
Schmidelia racemosa Linn. (p. 249). “Hab. island in the Sooloo Sea (in 
flower only).” The specimen is Allophylus ternatus Radik. 
Schmidelia obovata sp. nov. (p. 249). “Hab. . . . Mangsi Islands, in the 
Sooloo Sea.” The specimen is Allophylus timorensis Blume, a common seacoast 
species. 
Moulinsia rubiginosa Don (p. 250). “Hab. Caldera, Mindanao, one of the 
Philippine Islands.” = Erioglossum rubiginosum Blume. common and widely dis- 
tributed in the Philippines. 
Hemigyrosa perrottetii Blume ( p. 251). “Hab. Philippine Islands near 
Banos, Luzon.” = Guioa perrottetii (Blume) Radik. A very common endemic 
species. Specimen in Gray Herbarium, but not in the United States National 
Herbarium. 
Cupania ? richii sp. nov. (p. 257). “Hab. near Caldera, Mindanao, Philip- 
pine Islands (in fruit only).” This has been reduced by Radlkofer to Lepidopet- 
alum perrottetii Blume, but the specimen differs from the ordinary form of the 
latter species in its larger fruits and leaves, being well matched by No. 2160 
Williams, collected near Zamboanga, Mindanao, although probably not specifically 
distinct from Blume’s species.
