300 MR. B. HAYATA ON NEW sPECIES OF CONIFEILE. 
therefore be undoubtedly referred to Cunninghamia. The leaf has 
stomata on both surfaces, while that of C. sinensis has none on the upper 
surface, ог a very few. In the case of Taiwania, the stomata are found on 
both surfaces of the leaf. The new Cunninghamia differs essentially from 
C. sinensis by the arrangement and the shape of the leaves, smaller cones and 
broader squame. Тһе timber is like that of other Conifers, the bark is 
reddish brown and in all respects is very like that of Chamweyparis ; but it 
has a peculiar odour unlike other Conifers. The leaf of С. Aonish/i is more 
durable than that of C. sinensis ; the former lasts for eight, the latter for five 
years only. 
In conclusion, Г must express my hearty thanks to Prof. J. Matsumura 
under whose special permission this work has been carried out.
