stellatis obsitis. Flores 8—10 mm diametro, albi vel pallide rubri. 
Calycis lobi breves, subacuti, patentes vel reflexi. Petala 5 mm longa. 
suborbicularia, breviter unguiculata, extra stellato-pubescentia, Stamina 
alterna breviora, sursum sensim attenuata, alis edentalis. Styli tres, 
stamina longiora aequantes. Capsula matura subglobosa, 4—5 mm diam., 
hispidula et squamis stellatis dense induta. 
Central China: in the Hupeh district, growing on cliffs (E. H. Wil- 
son no. 1917, 1959, 22824). 
In the shape of its leaves and in its rather flat corymbose panicles 
it resembles some of the forms of D. parviflora Bunge, but it can at 
once be distinguished by the softly pubescent under-surface of the 
leaves, and by the wings ofthe filaments not being toothed. The flowers 
are white, or sometimes with a tinge of pink.

Frutex, cortice rubro-bruneo, cito deciduo. Folia breviter petiolata, 
5—9 em longa, ovato-lanceolata vel elliptica, obtuse acuminata, basi 
cuneata, marginibus arcte denticulatis, supra scabrida, subtus pallida, 
costá venisque pilosis, petiolo 6—8 mm longo. Flores in paniculas densas 
patentes globosas dispositi, luteo-albidi; bracteae iineares, pedicellis 
gracilibus breviores. Calyx 7 mm longus, tubo hemispherico, lobis tubum 
aequantibus, anguste triangularibus, demum reflexis. Corolla 15 mm 
diametro, cyathiformis, petalis apice cucullatis, marginibus erosis. Sta- 
mina petaloidea, alterna breviora; longiorum alis abrupte angulatis, 
haud productis, antheris sparse pilosis. Styli tres, infra medium haud 
lepidotis. Capsula 4 mm longa, subglobosa, squamis stellatis dense 
obsita. 
Central China: W. Hupeh (E. H. Wilson). 
It differs from D. Vilmorini in its cup-shaped corolla, and from D. 
Wilsoni in the longer and narrower calyx-segments. The wings of the 
petaloid filaments are not produced ad their apex. 
52. Deutzia reflexa Duthie, l. c., p. 238. 
Frutex parvus, ramis gracilibus, cortice bruneo-cinereo cito deciduo 
Folia 5—6,5 cm longa, 2—2,5 lata, anguste elliptico-lanceolata, acumi- 
nata, utrinque squamis stellatis seabrida, subtus pallida, marginibus 
serratis, costà venisque infra valde prominentibus; petiolis cirea 7 mm 
longis, supra profunde canaliculatis. Flores minores, 4—5 meri, in pani- 
culas laxas dispositi, ramulis calyceque squamis stellatis obsitis; bracteis 
10—13 mm longis, lineari-lanceolatis, persistentibus, marginibus ciliolatis. 
Calycis tubus hemisphericus; lobis circa 3 mm longis, anguste trian- 
gulari-lanceolatis, primum erectis, demum patentibus. Petala 6 mm longa, 
obovato-oblonga, extra puberula, apice cueullata, marginibus lateratibus 
reflexis. Stamina petaloidea, alterna breviora, alis apice abrupte angu- 
latis, sub-bilobata; antheris sparse pilosis. Capsula hemispherica, 5 mm 
diametro, sparse squamis stellatis minutis obsita. 
Central China: (E. H. Wilson). 
It differs from. D. Wilsoni in its much narrower calyx-segments, and
