The two preceding species, C. obtusa and C. pisifera, were 
placed by Bentham, together with other members of the section 
Chamecyparis, in the genus Thuya, and in a previous communi- 
cation I adopted the same arrangement. The shape of the cone- 
scales, the disposition of the ovules, and the form of the cone 
itself have, however, induced me to detach the species of Chame- 
cyparis from T'huya and to place them under Cupressus.
