A.J.G.H. KOSTERMANS Herbarium Bogoriense, Bogor, Indonesia ABSTRACT Dracontomelum petelotii is transfered to Spondias as Spondias petelotti (Tardieu-Blot) Kosterm. ABSTRAK Dracontomelum petelotii dipindahkan ke Spondias sebagai Spondias pete- lotti (Tardieu-Blot) Kosterm. Some time ago I asked Dr. J.E. Vidalof the Laboratoire de Phanero- gamic Paris, whether there was a specimen of Petelot 6384 collected in Ton- kin in the Paris Herbarium. The answer was negative. S o l send him the Bogor specimen and now, after my revision of Spondiadeae appeared, Dr. Vidal informed me that the specimen was found and had been described by Tardieu—Blot as Dracontomelum petelotii and that Mr. L.L. Forman of Kew Herbarium had suggested that it could be conspecific with Rhus vernicifera. The latter is certainly incorrect; leaflets, inflorescence and flowers do not correspond to those of Rhus vernicifera. I had no access to fruit of this specimen, said to be unilocular. For the time being I prefer to leave it in Spondias. Spondias petelotii (Tardieu—Blot) Kostermans, comb. nov.
