petioles and in the glabrous or puberulous sepals. It may also be 

 compared with C. Faheri Franch, and C. Francheti Komarov. In the 

 pubescence of the leaves and of the inflorescence it resembles C. 

 Hemsleyi Baillon. 



Theaceae by A. Reh der and E. Wilson. 



Thea elongata n. sp. (Western Szech'uan) characterized by 

 its narrow elongated leaves and petals and by its very long pedi- 

 cels and stamens. It is most closel}^ related to T. citbpidata Kochs, 

 which has stouter branches, large elliptic-lanceolate leaves, broad 

 flowers on yevj short pedicels, paleaceous much larger sepals, 

 ovate petals and shorter stamens. T. oleifera n. comb. {Camellia 

 oleifera Abel., C. sasanqiia Staunton, non Thunb. etc.). Stewariia 

 sinensis n. sp. perhaps most closely related to the little known 5. 

 serrata Max. The Japanese species 5. niouadelpha S. et Z. is cer- 

 tainh" closelj^ allied to the Chinese, as both have monadelphous 

 stamens, a united st^^le and short pedicels, the capsule, however, 

 of 5. sinensis is the largest in the genus, while that of 6". mona- 

 delpha is the smallest. Ternstroemia, no new names {T. japonica 

 Thunb. and var. Wig/ifii Dy er). Eiaya japonica var. a2/resce7isn.yav. 

 {E. japonica Pritzel, non Thunb.), differs from the type by larger, 

 coriaceous, coarsely toothed leaves and the free styies.

Passiflora cupiforniis Masters. 



Elaeagnaceae by A . R e h d e r. 



Hippophae rhainnoides var. procera, latin diagnosis, differs from 

 the type in the villous young branchlets and in the stellate tomen- 

 tum of the upper surface of the leaves; the villous pubescence being 

 particularly conspicuous on the tips of the growing shoots. In the 

 shape of the leaves and in the stellate pubescence of their upper 

 surface it resembles H. salicifoUa D. Don, but is easily distinguis- 

 hed from that species by the lepidote, not tomentose under surface 

 of the leaves. Elaeag)nis magna n. sp. {E. umheUata ssp. magna 

 Servettaz), the flowers are tubular-campanulate with a rather short 

 broad tube distinctly constricted at the base, not tubulär and gra- 

 dually narrowed toward the base and differ in these characters from 

 E. umheUata. E. multiflora f. angustata n. f. E. cuprea n. sp. seems 

 to be most closely related to E. difficilis Servettaz which differs 

 according to the descriptions and ligures in its much narrower 

 leaves slightly undulate on the margins, in the somewhat shorter 

 flowers with subsessile anthers nearly enclosed in the mouth of the 

 perianth and in the style exceeding the anthers. In foliage it resem- 

 bles E. glabra Thunb. The other allied species, as E. Henryi\^^3.r\i , 

 E. lanceolata Warb., E. viridis Servettaz and E. ßoc*// Diels, differ 

 in the under surface of the leaves being densely covered with 

 silvery^ white or ^^ellowish scales. E. stellipila n. sp. (Western 

 Szech'uan). This species seems to be most nearly related to E. 

 Grysii Hance which differs chiefly in its long pedicellate stellate 

 hairs, in the presence of spines. in the ferruginous tomentum of 

 the branchlets and of the flowers, in the campanulate tube of the 

 perigon attenuate toward the base, and in the sparingly lepidote 

 style being shorter than the anthers. E. macrantha n.sp. (Yunnan),
