From the material at present available I can see no sufficient reason for 
separating the above specimens from Blume’s species, hitherto known only from 
Java. They agree very closely with authentic material in our herbarium, received 
from the Botanical Garden at Buitenzorg, and also closely with the various 
descriptions of the species. None of the Philippine material has pistillate flowers, 
but the male flowers and fruits answer the description closely, while the arrange- 
ment of the staminodes in the female flowers is the same as in Blume’s species, 
as shown in specimens with immature fruits. T., Tatlang anac ; in Baler, Pagld.
