Shoot as can be dried conveniently on the same sheet. Such 
a specimen will show the length of an internode of the main 
stem, and the base of the branch. 
Although C. Meyeniana has been placed by Finet and Gag- 
hepain among the eperulate species, it appears to have scale- 
leaves ( perulae) at the base of its lateral shoots. In fact the 
difference between the “perulate’’ and ‘‘eperulate’’ groups of 
long-shoots in the latter. The perulae are, however, naturally 
more numerous and more in evidence in the former group. 
One variety, Clematis Meyeniana var. heterophylla, Gagnep.,* 
remains to be dealt with. ‘This has very large flowers and 
quinquefoliolate lower leaves, and has been referre to 
quinquefoliolata, Hutchinsont by Rehder and Wilson.t It is a 
Native of Hupeh and Szechuan.
