04397741 Memecylon lanceolati!m Blanco FI. Filip. (1837) SOI (sp. nov.) ; ed. 2 (1845) 209; ed. 3, 2 ,(1878) 26. This species is common and widely distributed at low and medium altitudes in Luzon and is abundant in the regions from which Blanco secured most of his botanical material. Metirie- cylon pyrifolìum Presi, M. cumingianwn Presi, and M. clausi- florum Naud., all based on Philippine material, are synonyms as I understand these forms as described; see Merrill in Philip. Journ. Sci. 8 (1913) Bot. 212. Illustrative specimens from Rizal Province, Luzon, November, 1915, June, 1916, here known as colis or eidis (Merrill: Species Blancoanae Nos. 955, 975).
