Western Szech'uan: Mt. Omei, May 1904 (Veitch Exped. No. 4904; shrub 
up to 6 m. tall). 
This species seems to be most nearly related to J. chinensis Hooker & Arnott, 
the type of which was collected near Hongkong. It differs from the plant of cen- 
tral China in its somewhat broader elliptic or obovate-elliptic leaves and in its dis- 
tinctly puberulent ovaries. The Chinese and Indian species of the genus need a 
thorough investigation. As I have already pointed out in my IU. Handb. Laubholzk. 
1. 396 (1905), I. chinensis does not occur in Assam, where it is represented by T. 
khasiana Schneider, nor in Formosa, where I. Oldhamii Schneider (I. chinensis, 
var. subserrata Maximowicz) takes its place. 
It may be mentioned that, according to the author's description, 7. yunnanensis 
a (in Jour. de Bot. X. 268 [1896]) seems to be only a synonym of T. ye ie 
iver. C. S.
