SAXIFRAGACEAE. — DEUTZIA 147 



Allied to D. setchiienensis Franchet which differs in its narrower thinner leaves 

 rounded or broadly cuneate at the base, not rugulose above, greenish and not reti- 

 culate beneath and more closely and less densely pubescent, in its shorter broadly 

 triangular and not purple calyx-teeth and in the larger flowers.

 1897, E. Bodinier (No. 1540, in Herb. Mus. Paris). 



Most nearly related to D. Fargesii Franchet and D. setchuenensis Franchet; 

 the first differs in its thicker, chartaceous and denticulate leaves, nearly glabrous 

 above and furnished beneath with hairs having 6-7 rays and in the much larger 

 and looser inflorescence, while D. setchuenensis is distinguished by the denser pubes- 

 cence, the denticulate leaves bearing on the lower surface hairs with usually 6 rays 

 and a central ray, and by the larger inflorescence; D. setchuenensis var. longidentata 

 Rehder, which resembles D. Bodinieri in the serration and pubescence of the leaves 

 except that the hairs beneath have sometimes 7 or 8 rays, differs further in the 

 elongated teeth of the filaments.

 Chaffanjan {E. Bodinier, No. 2223, in Herb. Mus. Paris). 



Easily distinguished from the alUed species by the very narrow leaves; its 

 nearest relation is apparently with D. setchuenensis, var. longidentata Rehder, which 

 differs in its broader membraneous leaves with the stellate haira beneath having
