DOUBTFUL AND IMPEBFECTLT KNOWN SPECIES. 181
pt. 2. 321. A species founded on a
Pious at all, but Enjthroxyhn
F. a-emlata, Hassk. Cat. Hort, Bot. Bogor. p. 76; Miq. PI. Ind. Bat. i
leaf-twig. I do not know what it may bs,
F. cuneata, Wall. Cat. 4334, is, as I am informed by Mr. W. B. :
Burmanicum, Griii.
F. dmmomm, Zoll. et Mor. Syst. Vera. p. 77, is probably, as Miquel suggests, F. obseura, Bl.
F. dentioulaia. Ham. in ^'rans. Linn. Soo, sv. 145, is referred by Miquel, and probably riglitly, to
F. qucrcifolia, Roxb.
F. dichrotvix, liiq. Of tliis tber© is a very poor specimen at Utrecht. It is F. obeonra, Bl.
F. {sub. Urodig.) Diepenhorsiii, Miq. FI. Ind. Bat. Suppl. 439, is founded cu a leaf specimen from Sumatra.
F. difformis, Lamk. Eno. ii. 499. Lamark's descriptioQ is too meagre to admit of certainty as to wliat plnnt
he meant. I have followed Mr. Beutham in treating this as probably the same as F. yibhosa,
Blume ; Bee p, 5.
F. dimidiuia, Wall, Cat. 4575, is probably F. aurantiaca, GriS, Tlie only specimens are leafy sboots.
F. discolor, Miq. Ann, Mus. Lugd. Bat, iii. 221, 291. I have seen no specimen of this; but from Miqnel's
'description, I should think it. is probably referable to eitker F.fulva, Reinw., or F. tomcaria, Liun.
F. drupacea, Thunbg, Ficus No. 11. I can make notking of this.
F. etlipsoidea, Miq. Ann. Mus. Lugd. Bat. iii. 230, 295. Tke type of this in the Utreekt Herbarium appears
to me to be simply F. Buhulata, Bl.; and a specimen at Kew, named cllipsoidca by Miqnel's own
liand, is undoubtedly the same as the type of tremaiocnrpa, Miq., which is the same as F.
Lecaisneana, Miq. F. ellipsoidea as a species therefore falls to tho ground.
F. Emodi, Wall. Cat. 4515. This is represented in the Walliebian collections by leaf specimens said to
have come f rom Goasainthan, & mountain in Nepal. Tho leaves of these are like those of F. laevis,
Bl., near which this plant has been put by Miquel (Lond. Journ. Bot. vii. 73 ; Ann Mus. Lngd.
Bat. iii. 278, 293), but they are more cordate at the base and have muck longer petioles. In my
opinion they more resemble the loaves of F. Anio/tiam, Miq., wkiok is not, however, a Himalayan
plant. But Wallich's localities are not always to be depended upon; and his No. 4515 may have
been attributed to Gossainthan through some confusion or misplacement of tickets.
F. crythroapcrma, Miq, in Ann. Mas. Lugd. Bat, iii. 226, 293. From Miquel's description of this, and from
the specimens in tke litreokt Herbarium, named by himself and which agree with his published
description, I should be inclined to regard this as a form of F. lepiocarj?a, Steud. ( = ramontacea,
Roxb.), from the typical form of which it appears to differ only in having obovate instead of ovato
leaves. The specimens at Kew and Leiden bearing this name (written also by Miquel's hand) do not
agree with his description, and they clearly belong to some other species; but the materials are too
imperfect for accurate determination.
F. exoeha, Miq, (sub. Urost.) Fl. Ind. Bat. i. pt. 2. 350; Miq. in Ann. Mus. Lugd. Bat. iii. 286.
A species from Western Java. Miquel's type of this is at Utrecht , and consists of three leaves, which
can liardly have been collected from the same plant. This sptcies is not represented in Kew,
Leiden, Calcutta, nor in M. deCandoIle's Herbarium at Geneva.
F.fallax, Miq. Fl. Ind. Bat. i. pt. 2. 308 ; Ann, Mus. Lugd. Bat. iii. 292. The type of this in tke Utrecht
Herbarium appears to be either a form of F. cuspidata, Reinw., or of F. irregularis, Miq.
F. filiformis,'Ei\. Bijdr. 442. Described without receptacles: probably founded on a young shoot of some
scandent species. I have seen no specimen.
F. Gasparriniana, Miq. in Lond. Journ. Bot. vii. 436 ; Ann, Mus. Lugd. Bat. iii. 294. I have seen only
one specimen of this, and it is too imperfect to be dealt with satisfactorily. The speoies, if it be
one, is evidently near F. SilhBlensis, Miq., and F. ereota, Thunbg.
F. glomerata (not of Roxb.), Wall. Cat. 4601C in part = F. saemocarpa, Miq.
F. gracilis. Wall. Cat. 4572, is not a Ficus.
F. griica, Wall. Cat. 4544. All tke specimens I have seen consist of twigs without leaves or
F. grossvvmis, Miq. Ann. Mus. Lugd. Eat. iii. 227, 294. From Borneo and doubtfully from Ambon
and Ceram, I have soon no specimen. From the description, this must be either F, lanata, Bl.
F. ranuntacea, Eosb., or near these.
