Western Hupeh: Changyang Hsien, woods, alt. 600-1500 m., 
1907 (No. 3; mixed with flowering and foliiferous twigs of P. Conra- 
dinae Koehne). 
This species is in the leaves, fruits and particularly in the spots on the petioles 
80 characteristie, that it should not be left undescribed. 
Prunus cyclamina Koehne, n. sp. 
Arbor 5-8-metralis; ramuli novelli glabri, vetustiores cani v. fusce-

glandulis parvis, herbaceae, sub fructu persistentes; pedicelli 15-26 
mm. longi, laxiuscule villosiusculi v. superne glabriores; cupula 4 
1 I have seen only two pedicels with fruits, each with a larger and a smaller fruit. 
It can, however, hardly be assumed that the species has always such twin-fruits.
