284 : WILSON EXPEDITION TO CHINA 
perigonii paulo angustioribus ad apicem extus pilosis; ovaria normalia apice ex- 
cepto glabra, stigmatibus normalibus longis linearibus coronata; pedicelli (et 
pedunculi) initio flavo-villosuli, deinde glabrescentes; inflorescentiae fructiferae 
petiolis 2-3-plo longiores. Fructus maturi ignoti. 
CHINA. Yunnan: Man-pan, red river bank, October 10, A. Henry (No. 
10848, type in Herb. New York Bot. Garden; tree 5 m. tall; with flowers and very 
young leaves and also with young fruits and older leaves; same No. in Herb. 
Arnold Arboretum, with flowers and young leaves only). 
This species seems to be well distinguished from all the other species of this and 
the first section. According to Henry's note the flowering branches were collected 
in October and he says “7 and 9 flowers and young leaves (some old leaves)." 
It may be closely related to C. cinnamomea Lindley (in Wallich, Cat. No. 3696 
[nomen nudum] [1829]; apud Planchon in Ann. Sci. Nat. sér. 3, X. 303 [1848]), 
the type of which has been collected by N. Wallich in Assam, Silhet (No. 3696). 
To this species seem to belong a flowering specimen collected by Lane from a tree 
cultivated in Hort. Bot. Calcutta, April 26, 1899, and a specimen from Sikkim, 
“ reg. trop. alt. 3000 ped.," J. D. Hooker, with very young fruits. In both speci- 
mens the 9 inflorescences are longer, bearing 3-5 flowers, the pedicels of which are 
very short. The leaves of Hooker's specimen are “ subtus siccitate cinnamomeis," 
as said by Planchon. It is often confounded with Celtis tetrandra Roxburgh from 
the Himalaya and C. Roxburghii Planchon (C. trinervia Roxburgh, non Lamarck) 
= Burma. The Indian species and also those of southeastern Asia need a care- 
ul study. 
The species is named in honor of Pére Auguste Salvat, a distinguished French 
missionary, who was in charge of the French Catholic Mission at Tali Fu, in ap- 
preciation of valued service rendered to me while I was staying in that town during 
the autumn of 1914.
