pus) (sp. nov.); ed. 2 (1845) 467; ed. 3, 3 (1879). 78.
This is apparently an entirely valid species, identical with
Artocm'pus tara/p Becc. of Borneo. Blanco’s specimens were
from MindorO, there known as oloy; the tree still occurs in parts
of Mindoro where it is cultivated for its edible fruits, but is
much more common in Mindanao and in Basilan.
Illustrative specimens from Calapan, Mindoro, May, 1916, a
topotype, there known as oloy, and from Basilan, August, 1916,
^ere known a s. mo/rang (Merrill: Species Blancoanae Nos. 1019f
