| 1. Viola arisanensis W. Bckr., spec. nov. 
Planta acaulis, humilis, foliis parvis e basi cordata distincte rotundatis 
albido-pilosis. — Rhizoma 4 tenue, obliquum vel verticale, breviter 
articulatum, radicibus tenuibus instructum, in parte superiore interdum 
elongato-articulatum, folia floresque emittens. — Stipulae scariosaoc, 
fuseae, parvae, lanceolatae, circiter 3—4 mm longae, in parte infima 
introrsum adnatae, remote longifimbriatae. — Folia subnumerosa, cir- 
citer 5—8, longipetiolata; lamina e basi semi-aperte vel profundius 
cordata distincte rotundata, obtusa, multicrenata (crenis 18—24), utrimque 
longe albido-pilosa (supra praecipue versus margines, subtus praesertim 
‚ad nervos), circiter 1,2—2 cm longa et lata, interdum latior quam longa; 
petioli circiter 3—4 cm longi, distanter albido-pilosi, exalati. — Flores 
foliis superati; petala ?; sepala anguste lanceolata, 2 mm longa, breviter 
appendieulata, glabra; capsula ellipsoidea, nutans, calycem paullum 
superans, glabra; stylus?; pedunculus supra medium bracteolatus, usque 
ad bracteolas fuscescentes albido-pilosus, ceterum glaber, circiter 2 em 
longus. — Insula Formosa, Arisan in silvis 2500 m (U. Faurie in 
stat. fret. VI. 1914 leg.). — Faurie, Pl. Formosaneae exs. (1914) 571. 
(Herb. Bur. Sc. Manila.) 
Verwandtschaftliche Beziehungen zu anderen Arten des ostasiatischen 
Inselgebietes lassen sich nicht feststellen. Falls die Art Ausläufer ent- 
wickeln sollte, könnte sie mit V. rupicola Elmer = effusa W. Bckr., 
V. adenothriz und brachycentra Hayata entfernt verwandt sein. Sie scheint 
‘aber tatsächlich ausläuferlos zu sein. 
2. Viola tiensehiensis W. Bekr., spec. nov.

ad 8 em alta, + distincte pubescens, foliis e basi plane cordata 
ovatis erenatis, floribus longe calearatis. — Rhizoma abbreviatum, 
brevissime artieulatum, in radices paucas tenues elongatos transiens. — 
Stipulae circiter 1⁄4 adnatae, inferiores albido-membranaceae, laciniis 
liberis remote glanduloso- fimbriatis et ciliatis. — Folia breviter vel 
longius petiolata, + breviter pubescentía praecipue in parte inferiore . 
et ad petiolos et nervos, e basi + plane cordata vel interdum subcuneata 
late vel oblonge ovata, obtusiuscula, distincte crenata, crenis 8—10. 
Flores folia superantes, inodori, dilute vel obscure violacei; pedun- 
culi dense pubescentes, in medio vel supra lineari-bracteolati:

catis; petala oblongo-obovata, lateralia barbata; calcar 5—6 mm lon-
