Veiy near Symplocos risekiensis HAYATA, but se- 

 parable from it only by the narrower leaves and larger 

 flowers. Also near Symplocos arisanensis HAYATA, 

 but differs from it by the longer and entire lanceolate 

 leaves. More closely allied to Symplocos prunifolia 

 S. et Z., but distinguishable from it by the much 

 narrower lanceolate more acuminate entire leaves and 

 nearly sessile flowers.
