Sect. OPULUS De Candolle 
Viburnum Sargentii Koehne in Gartenfl. XLVIII. 341 (1899).—

and October 1907 (No. 281, in part); Hsing-shan Hsien, thickets, June 
1907 (No. 281, in part).

Western Szech’uan: around Tachien-lu, thickets, rare, alt. 
1500-2250 m., June and October 1908 (No. 859, in part); Sungpan, 
thickets, alt. 2400-2800 m., September 1910 (No. 859, in part). 
The mature fruits, which have not yet been described, present a peculiar varia- 
tion; they are bright red and on part of the specimens subglobose and 1 em. long, 
on the other specimens oblong and 1.5 cm. long; the stone is much flattened, marked 
with five longitudinal lines and with scarcely noticeable ribs, ovoid and 8 mm. long 
and 5 mm. broad, or oblong and 12 mm. long and 6 mm. broad in the large-fruited

TRIOSTEUM L. 
Triosteum Fargesii Franchet in Jour. de Bot. X. 319 (1896). 
Western Hupeh: Hsing-shan Hsien, woodlands, alt. 1800-2300

The fruits are white according to Wilson. 
! An interesting addition to the Viburnums of China proper is the following 
species hitherto only known from Formosa. 
Viburnum luzonicum Rolfe, var. formosanum (Hance) Rehder in Sargent, Trees 
and Shrubs, 1I. 97 (1908). 
Fokien: without locality, S. T. Dunn, 1905 (Herb. Hongkong Bot. Gard., No. 
2763 in Herb. Arnold Arboretum). 
The specimen from Fokien differs slightly from the Formosa plant in the stamens 
being as long as the corolla lobes. 
2 Though Triosteum contains no woody species, it may find a place here to make 
the enumeration of the Chinese Caprifoliaceae collected by Wilson complete.
