56 ART. I.—B. HAYATA:

3 mm. in diametro, apice breve acute stigmatibus 5-lobatis coronate. 
Has. Taito, leg. S. Kusano, Juli. 1908. 
The present plant bears some resemblance to _ the 
Japanese Ilex macropoda Miq., but the leaves of the Japanese 
plant are more or less hairy, while those of the Formosan are 
quite glabrous. Besides, the former has deciduous leaves, while 
the latter persistent ones. This is also near I. macrocarpa OLIV. ; 
but differs from it in having much smaller fruit; from J. tatwaniana 
Hayata, in having much thinner leaves and much larger flowers.

I have seen the plant at Kew. It is not yet represented in 
the Herbarium at Tokyo. |

Has. Nokosan, ad 9000 ped. alt., leg. T. Kawaxamr et U. Mort, 
1908, Jan. (No. 4582). 
This is very like Ilex crenata Tuuns., but differs from it in 
having impressed veins on the surface of the leaves, which are 
quite obtusely crenate on the margin. In J. crenata, the leaves 
are shortly aristate at the apex of the teeth on the margin.
