ULMACEAE. — ULMUS 254. 
Ulmus Wilsoniana, var. subhirsuta Schneider, n. var. 
es typo praecipue recedit ramis annotinis dense pilis griseo-brunneis obtectis fere 
irsutis. 
CHINA. Southern Szech'uan: prope Hohsi versus Te-li-pu, May 7, 1914, 
C. Schneider (No. 1113; frutex squarrosus, circiter 2-3 m. altus; with unripe fruits). 
I have seen this Elm only in this one locality, and the young fruits and leaves 
agree well with those of the type. 'The branchlets of the preceding year bear a very 
dense grayish and brownish, almost hirsute, pubescence.

This European species does not occur in eastern Asia, where it is represented by 
U. japonica Sargent, from which it differs by the characters given in the key on p. 
249. It is mostly known as U. campestris or Ù. glabra, but neither of these names can 
be properly applied to it. Linnaeus's U. campestris includes all the European Elms 
and cannot be used for any one of them. By different authors mentioned above 
the name U. nitens Moench has been adopted, but it is antedated by U. foliacea of 
Gilibert, who gave a much better description of this tree than Moench did. In 
the Oester. Bot. Zeitschr. I have pointed out that Gilibert's name undoubtedly refers 
to our species.
