Amur, Ussuri, Korea and Japan. Betula with B. albo-sinensis 

 var. septentviotialis nov. var. and an analytical key with following 

 new names: B. Errnanii, var. gemiina, subvar. Saitoana [B. Saitomia 

 Nakai), and subvar. brevidentata , Japan. The author publishes in 

 the analytical key a number of new sections of this genus. Alniis, 

 with new description of A. lanata Duthie and an analytical key. A. 

 lanata belongs with A. cremastogyne Burkill to a new subgenus: 

 Creniastogyne. In the conspectus of the species some new forms are 

 described: A. Henryi, China, A. hirsuta var. Sibirien nov. comb. (.^. 

 sibirica Fischer, A. incana var. Sibirien Spach, A. ineann var. ginnen 

 Regel, A. tinctoria Kom. etc.), A.firma, subspec. hirtellnn. subsp., Japan. 



Leguminosne by A. Reh der and E. H. Wilson. 



Wistnrin with an account of the species of Eastern Asia: 

 W. floribiindn f. nlhn n. comb., f. rosea, f. vnriegntn, f. violneeo-plenn 

 and f. mnerobotrys, all cultivated Japanese forms. W. veniista n. sp., 

 Japan and China. 



Euphorbineene byj. Hutchinson. 



Andrnehne enpillipes n. comb. {A. cordifolin Hemsle}'', non Müller 

 Arg.) with var. pubeseens. A. hirsuta n. sp., characterized by its 

 lanceolate acutely acuminate, very hairy leaves and long-pilose 

 calyx-segments. Another new species, A. montann, has been found 

 by the Veitch Expedition, it is recognized by its obtuse leaves and 

 shortly racemose or fasciculate axillary inflorescences. 



Gloehidion pubenim nov. comb. {Agyneia pubern L.), G. Wilsonii 

 n. sp., very similar G. laneeolarium Dalzell, but differs from it in 

 having smaller male flowers with only 3 stamens; the styles are 

 also much larger than those of that species, and on this account 

 the plant should be placed near G. sphnerogynum Kurz; the large 

 calyx-lobes of the female flowers and the much lobulate column of 

 the style serve to distinguish it from that species. 



SauropuSj Phyllanthus, Seeurinegn, Fluggen and Bisehofia no 

 new species. 



Daphniphyllum angustifolium n. sp., distinguished by its narrow 

 leaves, short inflorescences and short stout pedicels. 



Antidesmn delieatuhini n. sp. (Veitch Exped.), related to A. ja- 

 ponieum S. et Z., but differs in its oblong leaves more rounded at 

 the base and hairy on the midrib and lateral nerves below, and in 

 its strictly terminal inflorescence. 



Croton no new species. Aealyphn ssechuanensis n. sp., closely 

 related to A. nemophylla Hemsl., but different in the very short 

 petioles, narrower leaves and hirsute-villose inflorescence with larger 

 and more foliaceous bracts of the female flower. 



Alehornen, Mallotus, Sapiuni, Exeoeearia and Aleurites no new 

 species. 



Thymelaeaeeae by A. Reh der. 



Wikstroemin eapitnta, closely related to W. linoides Hemsley, 

 from other related species it is distinguished by its few-flowered, 

 slender-stalked heads of flowers. W. ligustrina, nearly related to 

 W. ehnmnedaphne Meissner. W. brevipnnieulata , most nearly related 

 to W. rnierantha Hemsl. and also to W. ehaniaednphne Meisn. A 

 key to the determination of the Chinese species contains following 

 new forms: W. snlieitin Leveille et Blin n. sp., Yunnan, distinguis- 

 hed from W. ligustrina by the narrower leaves of firmer texture, 

 pubescent on both sides and revolute at the margin, by the pubes- 

 cent inside of the perianth and by the linear solitary disk scale at 

 the base of the pubescent ovary. W. pampanimi n. sp, {W. alter
