No. XVI. 16 (1867). 

 Hydrangea tiliaefoUa L6veil\6 in Fedde, Rep. Nov. Sp. VIII. 282 (1910). 

 Korea: Quelpaert, U. Faurie (Nos. 358, 1654), T. Taquet (Nos. 809, 2884). 

 Faurie's Nos. 358 and 1654 and Taquet's No. 809 are the type numbers of L6- 

 veill^'s H. tiliaefoUa, which is undistinguishable from H. petiolaris. 



The following three Chinese species from Kwei-chau recently described by L4- 

 veille I am not able to place, as I have seen no specimens, and the descriptions are 

 too incomplete for recognition. 



Hydrangea Maximowiczii L6veilld in Bull. Acad. Intern. Geog. Bat. XII. 114 



(1903). 

 Hydrangea Kamienskii Leveill(5, I. c. 115. 

 Hydrangea Arbostiana Leveille, I. c. 115. 

 The first resembles in its short stamens H. Lobbii Maximowicz, but differs in its 

 tomentose pubescence, the second is closely related apparently to H. heteromalla 

 Don, but has lanceolate petals, while the third may belong either to the Peta- 

 lanthae or to the Heteromallae, the description of the seeds as "imperfecte ob- 

 longa" may mean that they are winged or wingless.

Western Szech'uan: Mupin (type locality), rocky places, cliffs, 

 alt. 1600-1800 m., July and October 1908 (No. io68), Nov., 1908 

 (No. 1251, fruiting specimen), alt. 1800-2300 m., October 1910 (No. 

 4339); Wa-shan, rocky places, alt. 1200-1800 m., August, 1908 (No. 

 1 194); Wa-ssu country, Wen-chuan Hsien, rocky places, alt. 1200- 

 2100 m., Aug., 1908 (No. 2568); without locality, cliffs, alt. 1400 m., 

 June 1903 (Veitch Exped. No. 3562). Formosa: Mt. Taitou, 

 U. Faurie (No. 104, ex Hayata). 



A very variable species; the typical form which is represented by the plant of 

 western Szech'uan is characterized by large and broad leaves, generally ovate, and 

 subcordatc at the base, of firm, sometimes subcoriaceous texture, entire or only 

 sparingly denticulate near the apex, glabrous and green beneath and more or less 

 reticulate. All the specimens quoted above belong to this form except Faurie's 

 No. 104 from Formosa, which I have not seen; it may represent a form differenc
