* It seems to me that the plant is extremely variable, although I am not sure about the 

 luibit of this plant in Formossv, as I have never stayed so long in the island as to study the living 

 stite of the plant. As I hiive observed in Japan, the range of the variation of this plant is very 

 vide. In ordinary condition, the leaves are disposed in whorls, but on the branches shooting 

 out from a stump after the stem is cut they are arranged alternately. Mr. T. Making also refers 

 to this point in Tokyo Bot. Mag. XX. p. 39, where he expresses his opinion that A. verticillata 

 Fisch. 7. aUernifoliu Fbanch. et Savat. is nothing but a sport of the tyiic.
