Sikkim and Khasia mountains. 
Two or three of the Indian species of this affinity are very 
difficult to distinguish from each other in the absence of fruit. 
4. Ligustrum coriaceum, Carr. Rev. Hort. 1874, p. 418, fig. 56, 
et 1888, p. 440, fig. 101; Decne. in Flore des Serres, xxii. 1877,

We have seen no undoubtedly wild specimens of this, which 
Decaisne treats as a variety of the widely different Chinese 
L. lucidum. There is a specimen in the Kew Herbarium, col- 
lected by Oldham and labelled ** Japanese and Corean Archipelago 
Collections," 1861-63.

Frutex glaber, ramosus, ramulis floriferis gracilibus, cortice 
pallido, lenticellato. Folia breviter petiolata, tenuia, decidua, 
orbicularia vel oblongo-elliptica, 6-12 lineas diametro, venis

Hvuerru: Nanto and mountains to the northward (A. Henry !).

The flowers of this are unknown, but in other respects it is 
nearest related to L. vulgaris, Linn., differing conspicuously in its 
rounded leaves. 
5716. Ligustrum Henryi, Hemsl., n. sp. 
Frutex dense ramosus, ramulis hornotinis pubescentibus 
exceptis, glaber, ramulis floriferis gracilibus. Folia brevissime 
petiolata, coriacea, persistentia, diversiformia, rotundato-ovata, 
interdum orbicularia interdum ovato-lanceolata, 3-18 lin. longa 
vel diametro, sepius obtuse acuminata, subtus pallidiora, venis 
immersis inconspicuis. Flores albo-maculati, fragrantes (A. 
Henry), glabri, fasciculato-subspicati, brevissime pedicellati ; 
calyx cupularis, obsolete dentatus ; corolla crassa, infundibularis, 
lobis latis obtusis. Fructus niger (A. Henry), oblongus. 
Hurrn: Ichang and immediate neighbourhood (4. Henry, 
3124, 3310, 3575 !). Herb. Kew. 
This is very near L. Tschonoskii, differing markedly in the 
shape of the leaves, which in the present species vary much in 
size and shape on the same branch.
