Rhamnus arguta Maxm. var. Nakaharai Wayara FI. Mont. 
Formos. p. 70. 
The present plant is described in my paper above cited as 
representing a variety of Rhamnus arguta Maxm. At Kew, I have 
examined the co-type of the latter plant and found that the diffe- 
rence between the type and the variety is so great that I have 
thought it better to raise the latter to specific rank. The new 
species differs from the other in having slender flowers with longer 
styles, and still more in the supra-axillary inflorescence, 
Ampelideze.
