120 DR. H. F. HANCE’S SUPPLEMENT TO 
views as to their position and limits. I do not presume to offer 
any opinion on the merits of this arrangement ; but the extent of 
the changes effected is in itself a suflicient proof of the great 
care with which the recension has been conducted. It isa matter 
of regret: that the ordinary rules for indicating the authorities 
for generic and specific names have been so extensively departed 
from as to have called forth reasonable protests from many 
botanists. I subjoin the nomenclature adopted by Herr Müller 
for the Hongkong plants, when it differs from that of Mr. 
Bentham. 
*Daphniphyllum glaucescens, Blume; J. Müll. in DC. Prod. xvi. 3. 
(=D. Roxburghii, Baill.; Benth. Fl. Hongk. 316.) 
This genus is regarded by J. Müller as the type of a distinet 
order. 
*Agyneia bacciformis, A. Juss. ; J. Müll. in DC. Prod. xv. 238. ( = Phyl- 
lanthus bacciformis, Linn.; Benth. Fl. Hongk. 310.) 
*Antidesma Ghesembilla, Gaertn; J. Müll. in DC. Prod. xv. 251. 
(=A. paniculatum, Rozb.; Benth. Fl. Hongk. 318.) 
*Phyllanthus + (Euglochidion) Arnottianus, J. Müll. in DC. Prod. 
xv. 279. (=Glochidion molle, Hook. and Arn. ; Benth. Fl. Hongk. 
314.) 
*Phyllanthus (Euglochidion) hongkongensis, J. Müll. in DC. Prod. 
xv. 282, (=Glochidion litorale, Benth. Fl. Hongk. 314, but not of 
Blume, according to J. Müller.) 
*Phyllanthus (Euglochidion) Benthamianus, J. Miill. in DC. Prodr. 
xv. 282. (=Glochidion macrophyllum, Benth. Fl. Hongk. 315.) 
*Phyllanthus (Hemiglochidion) philippinensis, J. Miill. in DC. 
Prod. xv. 295. (=Glochidion philippinensis, Benth. Fl. Hongk. 314) 
*Phyllanthus (Hemiglochidion) Wrightii, J. Müll. in DC. Prod. 
xv. 298. (=Glochidion Wrightii, Benth. Fl. Hongk. 213.) 
*Phyllanthus (Hemiglochidion) eriocarpus, J. Müll. in DC. Prod. 
xv.306. (=Glochidion eriocarpum, Champ. ; Benth. Fl. Hongk. 314.) 
*Phyllanthus (Hemiglochidion) puberus, 8. sinicus, J. Mill. in 
DC. Prod. xv. 307. (=Glochidion sinicum, Hook. and Arn. ; Benth. 
Fl Hongk. 3M.) 
t I have enumerated all the Hongkong species of this large genus, as limited 
by J. Müller, even where there is no change of name, for the purpose of show- 
ing the section in which he places each,
