Yunnan: Mengtsze, mountains, southwest, alt. 1500m., A. Henry (Nos. oor 
9070, co-types, 13682); Szemao, mountains, alt. 1600 m., A. Henry (Nos. 11696", 
116965, 11696°; shrub 2-3 m. high, flowers with disagreeable odor). 
s species is very near C. fissa Rehder & Wilson, and resembles it in the leaves 
and in the flowers so closely that flowering specimens of the two species are almost 
indistinguishable. The fruits, however, are very different; in C. fissa the cupule 
is ovoid and encloses nearly the entire nut, leaving only a very small opening at 
the apex, while in this species the cupule is cup-shaped and covers only one-half or 
two-thirds of the nut and its scales are much more distinct. C. calathiformis forms 
thus a transition to Pasania as regards the shape of the cupule, but in all other 
characters it shows a closer relation to Castanopsis.
