    Piper betle L.

Piper anisumolens Blanco FL Filip. (1837) 23 (sp. nov.)=Piper aniso-
dorum Blanco op. cit. ed. 2 (1845) 16 (nom. nov.) ; ed. 3, 1 (1877) 31,
t. ,962=.PIPER BETLE Linn.
Piper anisumolens was reduced by Fernandez-Villar to
Pipèr marginatum Jacq., without good reason. I can see no
reason for considering it other than a form of the common
Piper betle Linn. The form distributed herewith is the plant
still locally known as buyo de anis, and it agrees with Blanco’s
description so far as the description goes.
Illustrative specimen from Antipolo, Rizal Province, Luzon,'
1915 (Merrill: Species Blancoanae No'. 788).
