FUI RENA Rottboell
Fulrena striata Llanos Frag. Pl. Filip. (1851) 21 (sp. nov.) ; F.-Vili. &
Naves in Blanco FI, Filip, ed. 3, 41 (1880) 14=FUIRENA CILIARIS
(Linni) Roxb/'Lam.).
Llanos’s description agrees perfectly with Fuirena ciliaris.
The plant, agreeing with the habitat cited by Llanos, is a char-
acteristic one of rice paddies. It is common and widely distrib-
uted in the settled areas of the Philippines at low and medium
altitudes.
Illustrative specimen from Manila, Luzon, November, 1914
(Merrill: Species Blancoanae No. 173).
