Merostachys sp.
name: label: Biogeographical Region
content: 42 - Malesia

notes: label: Notes
content: The only information on the specimen is a small damaged tag which says "134-[damaged]" and what appears to be a damaged and illegible Tobelo local name. This record was compiled based on contexual information in Case 27 Drawers 5 and 6. The other items in the drawer, as well as the drawer above it, are all similarly labelled. These specimens are consistent in that they have similar damaged labels, a collector number ending with a "--[letter]," are from Indonesia, and have the abbreviation "Tbl" (=Tobelo) with a Tobelo local name. One of them is also labelled as "Taylor," a collector who wrote a book (The Folk Biology of the Tobelo People) and has collected several bamboo specimens from the Tobelo area. Therefore, even though there is no locality or collector information on the specimen, the collector is listed as Taylor, P.M. and the locality as Indonesia. However, it is possible that this is incorrect.
