^ In the affinity of C. Armandi belongs the following new species from Yunnan: 



Clematis fulvicoma Rehder & Wilson, n. sp. 



Frutex alte scandens ramis subteretibus. Folia subcoriacea, ovata v. late 

 ovata, breviter acuminata, basi leviter cordata v. truncata, sed in petiolum breviter 

 producta, Integra 11-18 cm. longa et 8-15 cm. lata, palmatim 5-7-nervia, glabra, 

 laete viridia, concoloria, supra subnitcntia, leviter reticulata, subtus manifestius 

 reticulata; petioli cirrhosi, subteretes, 8-10 cm. longi. Inflorescentia axillaris, 

 racemosa, aphylla, 5-9-flora, pedunculata; pedicelli ut rhachis dense pilis brevibua 

 fulvis obtecti, subaequilongi, 4-5 cm. longi; flores desiderantur. Achaenia (imma- 

 tura) dense pilis longis suberectis fulvis obtecta, in stylum plumosum fulvum 

 5-7 cm. longum desinentia. 



Yunnan: Mengtze, southern mountains, A. Henry (No. 9377). 



Apparently closely related to C. smilacifoliaWaWich., which is easily distinguished, 

 however, by its narrower, thicker, not reticulate leaves often more or less peltate 

 at the base and by the grayish and shorter pubescence of the achenea.
