322 SPICILEGIA FLOR^ SINENSIS. 



this : it is very like a species gathered on the seashore at Gatope, 

 New Caledonia. (Vieillard, n. 130.) 



8. Kleinlioria hospita L. — In silvis primffivis ins. Hai-nan, d. 

 7 Nov. 1882, leg. rev. B. C. Henry. Not previously, I believe, 

 recorded from China. 



9. Helicteres spicata Colehr. var. ? hainanensis. — Kecedit a typo 

 foliis late ovatis, basi fequaliter cordatis v. obtusis, inpeqnaliter 

 grosse eroso-dentatis, 4 poll, longis 2^-3 poll, latis, petiolo polli- 

 cari, calycibus pilis stellatis incanis stipitatis vestitis. Flores 

 badii. Juxta Lam-ko, ins. Hai-nan, d. 24 Oct. 1882, leg. rev. 

 B. C. Henry. Probably not separable specifically from H. sjncata ! 

 but its very broad three-nerved leaves and a difference in the 

 clothing of the calyx give it a distinct aspect. 



10. Elseocarpus (Dicera) Henryi, sp. nov. — Eamulis angu- 

 latis atropur})ureis glaberrimis v. tenuissime puberulis, foliis mem- 

 brauaceis oblongis obtusis basi in petiolum seiisim cuneatis undu- 

 lato-crenatis crenis minute calloso-glandulosis glaberrimis supra 

 vix lucidulis subtus opacis costa subtus prominula venis tenuilaus 

 2^-8f .poll, longis l^poll. latis petiolo trilineali, racemis ad li- poll, 

 longis patentibus v. recnrvis laxitloris rachi pedicellisque bilineali- 

 bus tomentellis, sepalis lanceolatis tomentellis margine incanis 

 lineam longis, petalis sursum dilatatis ad medium usque laceris 1^ 

 lin. longis, staminibus circ. 10 antheris tenuiter tomentellis imber- 

 bibus, disco conspicue 5-lobo cum ovario dense cauo-tomentoso, 

 stylo tomentello stamina superante. 



Ad Sai-chii-shan, secus fl. North Eiver, prov. Cantonensis, m. 

 Junio 1883, coll. rev. B. C. Henry. (Herb, propr. n. 22287.) 



This differs by the thinner texture of its leaves and smaller 

 flowers from any sjpecies known to me. I should station it near 

 yyE. ammiKs Thw. ! 



11. Impatientis, sp. nov. — Secus fl. Lien-chau, prov. Canton, 

 m. Oct. 1882, leg. rev. E. H. Graves. Only a solitary specimen 

 found, and insufficient for examination ; but which, though without 

 fruit, T think belongs to Sir J. D. Hooker's braclujcarpce. subcapitttta. 

 I. chinensis Lam. is, so far as I know, the only species hitherto 

 found in South China, whilst /. noli-me-tangere L. occurs in the 

 north. 



12. Chailletia hainanensis, sp. nov. — Frutex 12-pedalis 

 ramulis angulatis ferrugineo-pilosis, foliis chartaceis oblongo-lanceo- 

 latis basi obtuse cuneatis apice acuminati? supra propter costam 

 strigillosam glaberrimis opacis subtus pallide ferrugineo-pilosis 

 costa costulis venisque reticiilatis tenuibus prominulis 4 poll, longis 

 11 poll, latis petiolo bilincali, cymis brevissimis plurifloris, floribus 

 brevissime pedunculatis hermaphroditis, sepalis oblongis obtusis 

 extus dense cano-tonientosis basi leviter connatis, petalis lineari- 

 subspathulatis apice bilobo lobis divcrgentibus glaberrimis (ex 

 amici collectoris notula) lutescentibus 2 lin. longis sepala duplo 

 excedentibus, staminibus petalis aquilongis basi cum iis in anulum 

 brevem connatis antherarum connective dorso incrassato, glandulis 

 hypogynis parvis quadratis, ovario libero cano-tomentoso stylo 

 apice trilobo stamina paulo superante glaberrimo.
