OF NEW CHINESE PLANTS. 
By H. F. Hanon, Pu.D., ETO. 
oS. Capparis (Eucapparis, pedicellares) hastigera, n. sp.; diffusa, 
ramis angulatis viridibus tomento albo et cinnamomeo stellato deter- 
gibili obtectis, spinis stipularibus brevibus subuncinatis, foliis brevi- 
petiolatis e'basi cuneata trilobis lobis lateralibus patentibus abbreviatis 
rotundatis obtusissimis medio producto lanceolato-lineari sequali cal- 
loso-mueronato penninerviis novellis tenerrimis maturis coriaceis 
utrinque eximie prominulo-reticulatis, floribus axillaribus solitariis pe- 
duneulis petiolo 6-plo longioribus eum sepalis rotundatis cinnamomeo- 
tomentosis, petalis oblongis glabris, staminibus circ. 30, ovario linea 
breviore ovoideo glaberrimo gynophoro longissimo basi lanato suffulto, 
stylo subnullo.—In herbidis demissis ad Pak-shá, ora maxime australi 
prov. Cantoniensis, sine fl. et fr. legi, d. I9 Novembris, 1866 ; ex 
insula Hai-nan specimina florida nuper retulit cl. Swinhoe.  (Exsiec. 
n. 13732.) 
Leaves borne on a. petiole 1-2? lines in length, 2 inches long, the 
lateral lobes only 6 to 8 lines long, diverging, and therefore presenting 
à truncate surface above, at right angles with the costa. š 
Closely allied to the preceding, and with it, no doubt, near to 
C. brevispina, De Cand., etc.; but the flowers are about four times 
sindfier, and the Ovary smooth, quite different in shape, and smaller, 
besides the other characters given.
