Very near S. cuspidata BRAND (in ENGLER Pfl.- 

 reich Symplocacese p. 69, n. 185). So far as I 

 can judge from the original description of BRAND, I 

 can not detect any difference between this and my 

 species, except the leaves which are in our plant are 

 a little narrower. As BRAND'S description is very short 

 and gives no account about the venation of the leaves, 

 it is at present impossible to decide whether the two 

 are the same or not.

Differs from the type by the remotely serrulate and a little broader leaves. 

 As the leaves are subject to some variation, the variety may be a mere form 

 of the type. I could not detect any difference between the flowers of the variety
