7813. Oxymitra obtusifolia Elm. Lucban, May, 1907. 
7815. Podochilus strictus Ames. There are no flowers 
with my specimen but the whole aspect of the plant suggests 2. 
strictus. S¢hlechter has identified material under this num- 
ber ac P. Oumingii. Bithner P. Cumingii and P. strictus are con- 
specific (the former holding by priority,) which I do not 
believe to be the case, or else Schlechter is mistaken in his 
identification. Lueban, May, 1907.
