6. Adinandra Millettii, Benth. & Hook. fil. Versus cacumina 

 montium Pakwan, supra Cantonem, d. 5 Junii, 1869, coll. 

 Dr. Henr. Wawra. This is the first indication of the locality of 

 this handsome and very rare plant, Millett's sioecimens having, 

 I believe, been destitute of any ticket.

 graminosis circa Whampoa, rara.

 terminalesque paniculatos dispositis, rachi calycibusque extus 

 cano-tomentosis. In amnibus North Eiver et Lien-chau Eiver, 

 prov. Cantonensis, m. Octobri, 1876, legg. Eevv. J. Lamont et 

 J. C. Nevin. (Herb, propr. n. 19695.) 



A very handsome plant, nearest 5'. oppositif(Ma, Brongn., but I 

 suppose well distinguished by the marked rugosity of its leaves, 

 rufous on the under surface. 



10. Vitis [Cissus) semicordata, Wall., (3. himalayana, Kurz. 

 Ad Whampoa, ipse primum inveni Julio, 1860 ; exinde pluries vidi 

 in varios Chmse anstralioris locos, arbores scandentem truncosque 

 aul^o foliorum vmdissimo abscondentem. The leaves on young 

 shoots are not unfrequently simple.

 striatuhs glaberrimis olivaceo-fuscis, foliis tenuiter membranaceis

 Eiver, prov. Cantonensis, m. Martio, 1877, coll. T. L. Bullock.

I have not seen mature fohage or fruit of this plant, which is 

 evidently aUied to the Japanese and North Clmiese S. japonica, 

 Maxim., and the Himalayan S. leptandra, Hook. f. & Th.

 Tsing yiine, faucibus fl. North Eiver, prov. Cantonensis, Sept.
