1 In my Conspectus of the Viburnums of eastern Asia (in Sargent, Trees and 

 Shrubs, II. 108) I placed V. tomentosum and V. Hanceanum in the section 

 Pseudotinus, but after a new study of the genus I have come to the conclusion 

 that these two species are closer to the species of the section Megalotinus and 

 particularly to V. Colebrookianurn; this leaves Pseudotinus a very uniform and 

 well defined group.
