The species,-is widely distributed in Luzon, and there is np
doubt in my mind but that the two species Blanco 'described
are identical. Blanco's specific name, Cnestis diffusa, is appar-
ently the oldest valid one for the species. - For a discussion Of
the synonymy see Merrill in Philip. Joum. Sci. 4 (1909) lot. 127.
