This variety seems to differ from the type only in its narrower leaves and might 
be considered a mere form of C. japonica if it did not occupy a different geographical 
area. From narrow-leaved glabrescent forms of C. Giraldiana it is easily distin- 
guished by the oblong anthers opening by a pore at the apex, and by the smaller 
longer-stalked inflorescence. It has little relation to the true C. longifolia Lamarck 
(Encycl. Méth. I. 563 [1785]; Tab. Encycl. Méth. I. 293, t. 69, fig. 2 [1791]), which is 
a southern species and has according to Lamarck’s description and figure narrow- 
lanceolate glabrous leaves about 25 em. long and a longer-stalked larger inflorescence. 
Hemsley's C. longifolia, var. ? longissima (in Jour. Linn. Soc. XXVI. 253 [1890]. — 
Hayata, Icon. Fl. Formos. II. 125, t. 36 [1912]) represents apparently this species; 
Hance's No. 4956, which I have before me, agrees perfectly with Lamarck's figure, 
and has the leaves perfectly glabrous except a short pubescence on the midrib and 
on the veins on the upper surface. 
Here may be added the description of a new variety from Korea and remarks on 
three sp not collected during the Arnold Arboretum Expeditions.
