Rumphius
listed two varieties of Musa silvestris, mindanauensis and amboinensis.
Cheesman comments that var. mindanauensis, taken up by Miquel as Musa
mindanensis, was probably a form of Musa balbisiana and that var. amboinensis
may well have been Musa textilis but that he "cannot
pretend to be able to interpret Rumphius". Champion
1967 queries spelling as M. sylvestris as given by Kurz p. 162.

The author Lamarie is not included in Brummitt & Powell 1992. Perhaps its Lemarie? as in Champion who
spells it M. sylvestris. Champion also say this is possibly section Physocaulis
after Kervegant and if so maybe its not M. textilis? According
to Uphof, the local name for this plant "Layason" is distinct from name used for
Musa textilis ("Abacá") but the plant also yields a locally used
fibre. The fact that the fibre is sufficiently different to call it by another name
does not mean it comes from a different Musa species. Musa textilis is
anyway probably a cultigen acording to Mabberley 1997 and "Abacá" and
"Layason" may just be different forms of it.

Champion
& Hotta include Musa silvestris L. A. Colla (M. sylvestris in Hotta)
as a synonym of Musa textilis and cites Colla's original publication
(Memorie dell' accademia reale delle scienze di Torino, Tomo XXV: 58 (1820)) which is
usually cited in its reprinted (and repaginated) form as above. Cheesman does not
mention Colla's plant in his discussion of Musa textilis.
