In my paper above cited, I mention that the present plant 
is referable to Hypericum attenuatwm Cuots., although there have 
been some doubts about its being identical with Cuorsy’s plant. 
While studying here at Kew, I have compared the plant with 
the type of the species, and found that they are so very different 
that it hardly needs pointing out. The Formosan plant comes 
very near H. perforatum; but differs from it in having obtuse or 
even rounded sepals. #H. perforatuwm has usually very acute sepals.
