1882, p. 260. 



Rami arcuato-prostrali, juniores cum petiolis tomenteni, aculeis parvis recurvis sparsis instructi. 

 Folia mediocriter (4 — 6 cm) petiolata, elongato-cordato-ovata, (in forma vulgari: loiige) acuminata, sinuato. 

 lobiilata, vel saepe lobulis lateralibus brevibus acutis triloba, 8 — 12 cm longa, crenato-dentata, supra parce 

 pilosa, glabrescentia, subtus pallidiora, in nervis venisque pilosa. Stipulae fimbriato-fissae, lacinulis fili- 

 formibus paucis. 



Inflorescentia e ramulis axillaribus subracemoso-thyrsifloris et e pannicula terminali apicem versus 

 decrescente composita, florilnis ramulorum subfasciculatis v. supremis singulis. Bracteae stipulis similes, 

 fimbriato-fissae. Flores parvuli; calyx campanulatus, externe tomentellus, saepe glanduloso-punctatus, 

 hirtus V. ad basin laxe hirsutus, sepalis ovatis raucronatis viridibus cano-marginatis; petala parva, obovata, 

 late unguiculata, sepala vix superantia. Fructus maturi rubri, e carpellis 15 — 20 glabris v. pilosis compositi. 



Occurrunl formae glandulis slipitatis tenuilnis in calyce et inflorescentia instructae. 



Subspecies (varietates?) distinguo duas: 



Subsp. hakonensis Franch. et Rochebr. Enum. pl. Jap. II, p. .3.33. 



Glabrior; folia minus acuminata et vulgo paullo latiora c[uam in typo. Fruetus lutei. 



Japan. 



Subsp. xanthoneurus Focke in (Diols FI. Centralch.) Engler Bot. Jahrb. XXIX, p. 392 (1901). 



Distinguitur bracteis parvis tricuspidatis, quasi tonsis. Flores paullo minores esse videntur, quam 

 in typo. Glabritie R. hakonensi similis, nervi in pagina inferiore foliorum manifeste lutescentes. In 

 specimine primo, quod examinavi, folia angustiora erant, quam in R. Lamhertiano typico et praeterea 

 juniora subtus tomentella. Postea vidi plantas, quarum folia ab illis variet. hakonensis non certe 

 distinguenda erant. 



Im siidlichen China von Hupeh bis an die Kii.ste; ferner anf Formosa und im siidlichen Japan; hier 

 die Subspec. hakonensis. 



Ad R. Lambertianum adjungo plantam imperfecte notam: 



89. R. pycnanthus Focke in Abh. Nat. Ver. Bremen III, p. 196 (1874). 



Ramulus foliiferus tenuis, appresse tomentosus, aculeis sparsis parvis armatus; stipulae in lacinias 

 paucas filiformes partitae; petiolus vix dimidiae folii longitudinis, tenuissime tomentosus, parce aculeatus; 

 foha cordato-ovata, sublobata, acuminata, argute inaequaliter et inciso-serrata, supra parce pilosa, in nervis 

 tomentoso-pubescentia, subtus praecipue in nervis velutino-hirta. 



Inflorescentia lerminalis,brevis,effusa,multifIora,pedunculis subfasciculatis, sub tomento virentihus, 

 inermibus, sepalis aequilongis; bracteae parvae palmatifidae; floros parvi; calyces infra medium partiti, 

 virides stellulato-pubescentes, sepalis triangularibus, tomentoso-marginatis, in flore suberectis; petala 

 calyces vix superantia, purpurea (??): carpella glabra. Descr. ox specimine in Hb. Havniensi asservato. 



An forma parva R. Lamhertiani? Habitus omnino diversus. Inflorescentia densa, effusa, multiflora 

 et sopala triangularia plantam ab illa specie separare videnlur. 



Longil. petioli 1,5, folior. 3—4 cm, latit. folior. 2,5—3 cm. Longit. inflorescentiae 6, peduncul. 

 0,6, calycis 0,6, bractear. 0.4 cm.
