Hance (Jouru. Linn. Soc. xiii. p. 101) records this species from 

 Hongkong, but from his own remarks it seems probable that he 

 had a variety of P. hypoleuca before him. It yields the Chinese 

 G-alls of commerce — the Woo-pei-tsze. Dr. A. Henry desig- 

 nates it the " Eed Gall-nut Tree " of Hupeh, the galls of which 

 are used in medicine.

Japan and the Himalayas, from Kashmir to Sikkim and Bbotan, 

 and in the Khasia mountains ; also in Java. The Indian speci- 

 mens belong to slightly different varieties. 



Engler (in op. sup. cit.) records this species from Jehol, Chihli, 

 yet nothing answering to it is enumerated in the " Plantae 

 Davidiana* "; and Franchet (in Mem. Soc. Sc. Nat. Cherbourg, 

 xxiv. p. 208) doubtingly refers to it a plant from Chefoo, Shantung.
