This is the first record of the species from Formosa which is represent- 

 ed by a specimeu exactly like the Japanese. That plaiut which was 

 recorded from the island by Dr. A. Henby and enumerated by myself 

 in our previous works is perhaps not the same as the Japanese. Hei-e is 

 another specimen ■which has a rather different aspect from tlie type. But, 

 so far as floral paris are concerned, it may be probably referable to 

 the same species or may l^e a variety of it.
