FLORA MONTxVNA FOI!MCS,E 3 



work on these families will be specially treated in the near 

 future. 



Although tlie materials here treated are rather limited and 

 further exploration will reveal many new features, the present 

 work will, I liope, throw some light upon tlie study of tlie 

 montane flora of the island. 



In conclusion, I wish to tender my sincere thanks to Prof. 

 J. Matsumuka under whose oversight this work has been car- 

 ried out. Thanks are also due to Messrs. T. Kawakami, S. Na- 

 GASAWA and G. Nakahara, who all have generously put their im- 

 portant collections at my disposal. Lastly, I desire to express 

 my cordial gratitude to Mr. N. Konishi whose valuable collections 

 have enabled me to make most interesting discoveries on 

 Coniferse and Quercinese. A new species of C'onifeioc is named 

 Cimninghamia Konishii in recognition of his kindness.
