114 WILSON EXPEDITION TO CHINA 
Western Hupeh: South Wushan, thickets, alt. 1500-1800 m., 
September 1907 (Nos. 224, 230); Hsing-shan Hsien, thickets, alt. 
1200-1800 m., June, August and September 1907 (Nos. 240, 394, 
1817, 1822); Fang Hsien, thickets, alt. 1800-2100 m., June 1907 
(No. 1819). 
The Hupeh specimens differ from the type chiefly in the longer stamens, exceed- 
ing slightly the corolla-lobes, and in the occasionally broader leaves. The fruits, 
not yet described, are ovoid and bright red; stone ovoid, pointed, 3-6 mm. high and 
4.5 mm. broad, with one dorsal and two ventral ribs; testa light purplish brown.

Western Hupeh: Hsing-shan Hsien, thickets, alt. 1500-2000 m., 
June, July and November 1907 (Nos. 590, 1816); north and south of 
Ichang, thickets, alt. 1500-1800 m., July and November 1907 (Nos. 
238°, 249); Patung Hsien, thickets, alt. 1500 m., July and October 
1907 (No. 400); Chang-yang Hsien, thickets, alt. 1850 m., December 
1907 (No. 669). Western Szech’uan: Wa-ssu country, Wén-chuan 
Hsien, alt. 2100 m., July and September 1908 (No. 1043); Tachien-lu, 
thickets and open woodlands, 2100-2400 m., June, July and October 
1908 and October 1910 (Nos. 1262, 1263, 1263*, 1809, 4128). 
Wilson's No. 1043 differs rather strikingly from the type in its very small leaves 
with few veins and with few coarse or occasionally lanceolate and entire teeth, more 
pubescent corymb, smaller flowers with the stamens scarcely exceeding the corolla- 
lobes and in the smaller fruits.

Western Hupeh: Hsing-shan Hsien, thickets, alt. 1800 m., July 
and September 1907 (Nos. 238, 393); north and south of Ichang, 
thickets, alt. 1500-1800 m., June and October 1907 (No. 411). West- 
ern Szech'uan: Wa-ssu country, Wén-chuan Hsien, thickets, alt. 
1800-2700, October 1908 (No. 1025); October 1910 (Nos. 4147, 4194); 
Tachien-lu, thickets, alt. 2400-2700 m., June 1908 (No. 1807). 
No. 393 seems nearest to the type. No. 238 differs in its smaller leaves, smaller 
flowers and smaller fruits with the stones scarcely 5 mm. high and ovoid. The 
distributed under the same number are different and agree exactly with those of 
the type. :
