■^Obseiv. An allied genus Echixocarpus, BL, though represented by two species in 

 China and by one in Formosa, has never been discovered within our limits. As there seems, 

 however, to occur a little confusion in the nomenclature of the Chinese species, published 

 some years ago by Mr. Hemsley, I may venture to make the following suggestion : — 

 1- Echinoe^rpus sinensis, Hance, in Journ. Bot. 1S84, p. 108. 

 Ilab. in Cliina : Kwangtung, Lofaushan (Faher tide Hance).

 Schumann (in Engler and Prantl's Xatiirlich. Pflanzenfam. Ill, 0, p. 5), however, in- 

 cludes this genus into Sloa-iieci, L. [T. Itr.].
