IXOr.A MONTANA FOr.MOS.T: 2 13 



Tlie Jhiiipcrxs described above was first found l)y Mr. 

 Shimoya^ia on tlie top of ^It. ^Morrison at an altitude of about 

 4000 m., in the year 1890. Althouoh the same mountain was 

 since botanized l)y several collectors, tlie specimens brought 

 back to me weie but fragments of a sterile In-anch. 1 could not 

 get any more idea about this plant than that it is something 

 like Jiinipcrns cJiincnsi-'i Lixx., until Mr. T. Kawakami gave me a 

 most perfect specimen of it. Examing the material, I have 

 found that the plant is far different from J. cJiinensis Lixx., in 

 having a solitary ovule on a short l^ranchlet, and in the shape 

 of its cone. The leaves have a large single resin -canal near 

 the phloem. So far, the plant does not seem to have dimorphic 

 leaves, all the specimens we Lave at present possessing but one 

 kind of leaf. 



Ctdiiihif/haniia M. Be. 



C((iiinn(/Jianila, lieing a monotypic genus, implies only ('. 

 sinensis 1Î. Be. It is, therefore, the most remarkable matter that 

 we have here an addition of one more species belonging to this 

 interesting genus. The new C'anninglianiia was kindly sent 

 to me by ]\Ir. T. Kawakami, Crovemment p]xpert of Formosa. It 

 was obtained by Mi'. X. Koxism on Mt. Bandaisan at an altitude 

 of about "iOOO m. It is very rarely found in tlic coniferous forests, 

 and attains a considérai )le height. It affords a good timlier wliicli 

 bears some resemblance to CJiamœci/pai'is.
