SYNOPSIS OF THE GENUS LONICERA. 63 
This is the type of the species, and as synonyms belong 
here L. Sieversiana, Xylosteum Sieversianum and Capri- 
folium microphyllum. 
var. GRACILIOR, Ledebour, Fl. Alt. 1: 249 (1829); Ic. 
Flor. Ross. 3:8. pl. 213. f. 2b (1831). 
L. microphylla Bungeana, Trautvetter, Bull. Acad. Sci. St. Pétersb. 
891: 332 (1866). 
Here belong L. microphylla, Bunge, L. Bungeana, 
Xylosteum Bungeanum and Caprifolium Bungeanum. 
This-form has been distinguished from the type by the 
upright peduncles being about as long as the leaves, by the 
distinctly gibbous corolla, the not wholly connate fruits 
and the more glaucous, less pubescent and sometimes 
acutish leaves.

This species was hitherto known only from fruiting 
specimens collected by Tschonoski, but in Pere Faurie’s 
collection (herb. Paris) there is a flowering specimen 
which apparently belongs here; the leaves are smaller 
than in the type and sparingly pubescent on both sides; 
peduncle about 2 cm. long, upright, puberulous; bracts 
subulate, slightly longer than the ovaries, glabrous; bract- 
lets wanting; ovaries distinct, oval; calyx very short, 
truncate; corolla campanulate, somewhat unequal at the 
base, about 1 cm. long, apparently whitish tinged with 
purple, glabrous without; limb about one-fourth the 
length of the corolla, with 5 upright almost equal, rounded 
lobes; stamens slightly exceeding the corolla, style ex-
