'The genus exists in the Eastern Himalaya, China ad Japan. Of a Ilthe 
species recorded from the countries above mentioned, the nearest is 4. elatior, 
from which our plant differs by the much narrower and more attenuate 
leaves, which are less dark than those of the congener. It grows on shady 
places at an altitude of 2000 m. near Jurigi in the Arisan-ranges, It becomes 
less frequent above or under that elevation. So far as I am aware, there exist 
in Formosa two species of Zspidistra. 'lhe present plant is quite different from 
the one that I saw in the neighbourhood of Koshun.
