There may be more than one species included under this. 
The forms are numerous, and the extremes differ much more 
from each other than the originals of L. sinense and L. Stauntoni, 
and they vary in stature from five to thirty feet. Dr. Henry 
mentions in his notes that he is of opinion that the specimens 
represent more than one species; yet we have failed to distin- 
guish them. Ligustrum parviflorum, Vis. (ez Decne. in Nouv. 
Arch. du Mus. Par. 2™ série, ii. p. 26), comes very near, and 
may be a garden variety. 
Dr. Henry states that his 906 was reported to be a tree on 
which the wax-insect lives. . 
Decaisne refers Phlyarodoxa leucantha, S. Moore, to this 
Species; but it is clear that he never saw the specimen.
