Japan. I have seen only a few Japanese specimens without locality or collector 
and one specimen collected by Siebold, all in the Herbarium at Leyden and de- 
termined by Miquel erroneously as his P. subhirtella. 
70. Prunus taiwaniana Hayata in Jour. Coll. Sci. Tokyo, XXX. 87 (1911). 
Formosa. Notknown to me. Hayata says; “somewhat like P. pendula, but 
oo by the smaller flowers with narrower and more deeply emarginate 
petals.’ 
71. Prunus microlepis Koehne, n. sp. 
Rami annotini tenues (an penduli?), pallide fuscescenti-cani, glabri; gemmae 
circiter 3 mm. longae, anguste ovato-conicae, glabrae, solitariae v. ternae tunc 
media folüfera, laterales floriferae (ut in Microceraso). Folia sub anthesi 5-7 
mm. longa; dentes sub lente valida longiores quam latae, multae bifidae, omnes 
obtusae omnino eglandulosae, saepe incurvae; lamina supra pilis rigidulis con- 
spersa, subtus nonnisi in nervis pilosa. Involucra parva, circiter 5 mm. longa; 
pedunculus 0-5 mm. longus; flores (1-)2 umbellati, praecoces; bracteae spathu- 
lato-rotundatae, circiter 3-4 mm. longae, glanduloso-fimbriato-serratae, herbaceae; 
pedicelli 10-16 mm. longi, glabri v. pilis paucis tenerrimis conspersi; cupula 5 
mm. longa, campanulato-tubulosa, glabra v. subglabra; sepala ovata obtusa, 
3.5 mm. longa, integra; petala rotundata, 7 mm. longa 6 mm. lata, leviter emar- 
ginata; stamina 35, petalis subbreviora, ad 5 mm. longa; stylus stamina paullo 
superans, glaber. 7 
Hondo: prov. Senano, a. 1864, Tschonoski (Maximowicz, Iter II.), determined 
by Maximowicz as P. pendula, mixed with var. ternata. 
Differs from P. pendula Maximowiez by the obtuse serratures of the leaves, 
the shorter and broader sepals, the small petals, the more numerous stamens 
slightly shorter than the petals and the glabrous style. 
Prunus microlepis, var. ternata Koehne, n. var. = 
Rami intense fusci; gemmae ternatim ramulos vix 3 mm. longos terminantes, 
media foliifera, laterales floriferae. Flores solitarii; pedicelli 5-6 mm. longi; cu 
6 mm.; sepala late ovata, hinc inde intus pilosa tenereque breviter ciliata, 2 mm. 
longa; petala 8 mm. longa 6 mm. lata; stamina 41, ad 6 mm. longa; stylus stamini- 
bus subbrevior. 
Hondo: Tschonoski (with the type, determined by Maximowiez as P. pendula).
