Yunnan: Mengtsze, southeastern mts., A. Henry (No. 10136; tree 5m. tall). 

 Khasia: "alt. 4-6000 ped.," J. D, Hooker <fe T. Thomson {Pyrus (c), type of 

 Pyrus granulosa). 



This species which is closely related to S. polycarpa Rehder and S. sikkimensis 

 Wenzig is easily distinguished from these species by its larger spotted fruit. 



The original description of this species is somewhat confusing, as the quotations 

 of the specimens under Pyrus verruculosa and P. granulosa are interchanged; 

 "Pyrus (c) " quoted under P. verruculosa belongs to P. granulosa, and "P. vario- 

 losa Trell. [sic] var." quoted under P. granulosa belongs to P. verruculosa, as a 

 comparison of the description and the plates with the specimens quoted shows. 



7. Sorbus polycarpa Rehder, n. comb. 



Pyrus polycarpa Hooker f., Fl. Bnt. Ind. II. 378 (1879). — Schneider, III

Micromeles Schwerinii Schneider, III. Handh. Laubholzk. I. 702, fig. 388 b, 

 389 a-ai (1906); in Fedde, Rep. Spec. Nov. III. 15 (1906). 



Western Szech'uan: A. /fenr^ (No. 8957, ex Schneider). Shenai : G.Giraldi 

 (No. 986, ex Schneider). 



As there is already a Sorbus Schwerinii Schneider (in Bull. Herb. Boissier, s^r. 

 2, VI. 315), the original specific name cannot be retained and the plant may be 

 named after A. Henry, whose specimens served as the type of this species.
