I. 1-for 490 \ %i£/S?2-J3y J& #^ PREFACE This compilation of notes was undertaken after numerous inquiries had been made at this office for information concerning the Philippine forests, char- acteristics of the leading timber tree species, value of same, present and future markets, method of procedure to secure licenses to cut timber, etc. Prelimin- ary investigation by lumbermen will be facilitated by these notes and illustrations, and as the exploitation of these forests will be through American enterprise and capital, the need of a guide to a knowledge of the leading Philippine timber tree species seemed essential. A revision of the Philippine Forest Bot- any is necessary, and will be made as soon as possible. George P. Ahern, Captain gth U. S. Infantry Manila, P. I., January 2, 1901. /;/ Charge of Bureau.

The following extracts from the forestry regulations are of interest to those contemplating the exploitation of the public forest lands of the Philippines. The Spanish law in force in these islands provided for the reservation of all public forest lands when the proper surveys were made. The practice under said law was to sell the timber at so much a cubic foot. Public timber land was as a rule not sold, but when sold it was done on the approval of the Forestry Bureau and at a valuation by said Bureau. At present forest products are procured from public lands by license granted for one year by the Forestry Bureau in Manila. No charge is made for this license, but a charge is made as indicated below: Article i. Timber shall be classified into six groups as indicated in the tables below. Art. 3. The price per cubic foot for the valuation of State timber shall be as indicated in the following table. The price shall be the same in all parts of these Islands: Superior Group 14 cents per cubic foot. First " 10 " " " " Second " 8 " " " " Third " 3 " " ' " " Fourth " 2 " " " " Fifth " -. 1 " " " " Art. 12. The woods of groups 3, 4 and 5 only may be cut for fuel. FORESTRY BUREAU Art. 13.

Basic Sci.: 2017, 5(2), 34-53 ISSN (Print): 2454 – 7492 ISSN (Online): 2347 – 4114 www.ajabs.org Brief Review on the Genus Diospyros: A Rich Source of Naphthoquinones Venu Sharma School of Biotechnology, University of Jammu, Jammu & Kashmir, INDIA * Correspondance: E-mail: [email protected] (Received 01 Sept, 2017; Accepted 14 Sept, 2017; Published 21 Sept, 2017) ABSTRACT: Diospyros genus (Ebenaceae) comprises about 500 species. A number of them are used for their multiple pharmacological activities. Ethano-phramacologically various plant parts are formulated and prescribed in the form of extracts and the decoctions for remedy of different diseases in many tribes. These activities are due to presence of bioactive secondary metabolites in the plant. Systematic and detailed investigation on the composition and pharmacological significance of medicinal plants should be conducted to standardize the formulations, based on ingredients. In the present review, naphthoquinone, naphthalene and naphthol derivatives isolated from Diospyros species are documented here with the pharmacologically important species of the genus. Keywords: Diospyros genus; species; Ebenaceae; pharmacological activities; naphthoquinones. INTRODUCTION: Diospyros genus belongs to the retic, laxative and stypic. Its dried flowers are reported to family Ebenaceae. The plants of Ebenaceae are wide be used in urinary, skin and blood diseases. A dilute ex- spread in tropics and sub tropics, occasionally into tem- tract is used as an astringent lotion for eyes5. Heartwood perate areas. According to Hegnaeur1 the family consists of D.mollis has been found to be active against hook- of seven genera, namely Diospyros, Euclea, Maba, worms but less active against tapeworms14.

  • 13. Inventory and Assessment of Mother Trees of Indigenous Timber Species on Leyte Island and Southern Mindanao, the Philippines
    13. INVENTORY AND ASSESSMENT OF MOTHER TREES OF INDIGENOUS TIMBER SPECIES ON LEYTE ISLAND AND SOUTHERN MINDANAO, THE PHILIPPINES Nestor Gregorio, Urbano Doydora, Steve Harrison, John Herbohn and Jose Sebua The scarcity of information about the distribution and phenology of superior mother trees is a major constraint in scaling up the production of high quality seedlings of native timber trees in the Philippines. There is also a lack of knowledge among seedling producers and seed collectors about the ideal characteristics of superior mother trees resulting in the collection of germplasm from low quality sources. A survey to identify the location and phenology and to assess the phenotypic quality of mother trees of native timber species on Leyte Island was carried out as part of the implementation of the ACIAR Q-Seedling Project. A similar survey was also undertaken in Southern Mindanao as an offshoot of the Q-seedling project implementation and to support the reforestation program of Sagittarius Mines Incorporated. Locations of mother trees were recorded using a global positioning system and phenologies were determined through local knowledge of seedling producers and available literature. Phenotypic quality was assessed using the method developed by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources. On Leyte Island, 502 mother trees belonging to 32 species were identified. However, almost half of the identified mother trees were of low physical quality, with bent, forking and eccentric stems. In Southern Mindanao, 763 trees belonging to 117 species were identified from the natural forest and on-farm sites. There is a need for an information campaign on the importance of germplasm quality and capacity building to encourage seedling producers to adopt the germplasm collection protocol to increase the collection and use of high quality germplasm.

Ahern, Chief of the Forestry Bureau, the objeet being to facihtate the work of the various employees of that Bureau in identifying the tree species of economic importance found in the Arcliipelago. For the interests of the Forestry Bureau the names of the va- rious tree species only are of importance, but in compiling this list all plant names avaliable have been included in order to make the present Avork more generally useful to those Americans resident in the Archipelago who are interested in the vegetation about them.

Leaf Architecture of Philippine Shorea species (Dipterocarpaceae) Pulan 1 D.E. and Buot Jr. I.E. 2 1College of Forestry and Natural Resources, PHILIPPINES 2Institute of Biological Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences University of the Philippines, Los Baños and Faculty of Management and Development Studies, University of the Philippines, Open University Los Baños, Laguna, PHILIPPINES Available online at: www.isca.in, www.isca.me Received 6th November 2013, revised 15 th December 2013, accepted 14 th January 2014 Abstract The leaf architecture of ten Shorea species (Dipterocarpaceae) was studied. A dichotomous key was constructed based mainly on the leaf architecture character states that were measured and described. The most useful character to delineate these Shorea species is on areolation. Other useful characters are blade class, laminar ratio, base angle, apex angle, base shape, apex shape, vein spacing and vein angle. These morphometrics showed unifying and distinguishing diagnostic character states that are good taxonomic markers for the description and identification of Shorea species in the Philippines. Keywords: Leaf architecture, character states, Shorea, Dipterocarpaceae and Malvales. Introduction contorta (figure 3), S. polysperma (figure 4), S. ovata (figure 5), S. malibato (figure 6), S. assamica (figure 7), S. astylosa (figure Leaf surface characters are very important morphological 8), S. polita (figure 9) and S. palosapis (figure 10). At least 10 1 features worthy of closer examination .
