8. Cryptomeria japonica Don. Hab. Morrison.

11. Chamaecyparis formosensis Matsumura. Hab. Morrison, Hattsu- 



kwansan, Mt. Tebola. 

 Note : — This genus and Pseudo-tsuga are found only in Japan, 

 North America, and Formosa, each having its own species. This 

 fact stands in favour of the affirmation that North America, 

 Japan, and Formosa were in communication with each other 



in some geological ages, America and Japan by the Aleutian 



and Kurile Islands ; Japan and Formosa by the Liukiu Islands. 



12. Juniperus rigida Sieb. et Zucc. Hab. Morrison.

 from Mongolia southward ; and, what is interesting to 

 notice, the Himalaya.

 Distrib. : Japan, Corea and Central China. 

 **Keteleeria sp. ? Hab. in monte Bunsanho, Taihokuken. 



There are in all 17 species and 12 genera. Most of the species are 

 Japanese, though none of them, except Chamaecyparis formosensis Matsu- 

 mura, are indigenous. 



* The Podocarpus of Mr. H. F. Hance is probably equal to P. macrophylla Don. 

 * When I have done with my manuscript, I was given by Prof. J. Matsumura a very 

 interesting conifer, perhaps belonging to the genus Keteleeria. Owing to the imperfectness 

 of the specimen, I could not determine its specific name. So I omit the species from the 

 following tables.
