78918 Quisumbing, March 10, 1930. The living plants from 
Baguio, Mountain Province, were collected by Mrs. K. B. Day, 
who found them growing on moss-covered decayed logs and in 
mossy ground, at about 1,600 meters altitude. 
This species is closely allied to Adenostylis luzonensis Ames, 
from which species it differs conspicuously in its subentire label¬ 
lum and lower stature.
