China: Kansu (Przewalski! Potanin, Ladygin, no. 
481); Hupeh (Henry, no. 6862). Rarely cultivated (Ar- 
nold Arboretum, Goettingen, Kew). — Plate 16. 
In wild specimens I have found the bractlets always 
connate into acupula, but on cultivated plants they are 
often in distinct pairs and sometimes ovate-lanceolate in 
shape.

Caprifolium Brandtii, Kuntze, 1. c. 
Japan: Hondo (Tchonoski! Rein, Savatier no. 2889). 
L. Brandtii does not differ from L. Tschonoskii; the 
stamens, which are described as glabrous by Maximo- 
wicz and densely pilose below by Franchet, are pilose 
below the middle, but in Maximowicz’s specimens, which 
have only flower buds, the filaments have not yet attained 
their full length, and seem to be glabrous, though they 
are really hairy at their very base. — Plate 17.

Fl. Austr. Ic. 4:7. pl. 314 (1776).— Aiton, Hort.
