428 CORRECTIONS AND ADDITIONS TO VOLUME I 



ing over rocks, alt. 2300-2600 m., July 3, 1908 (No. 2730); Tachien-lu, rocks, alt. 

 2600-3000 m., October 1910 (No. 4171; fruit blue-black); west and near W6n- 

 ch'uan Hsien, covering rocks, alt. 2000-2300 m., October 1910 (No. 4184; 3-7 m., 

 fruit black). 



Parthenocissus landuk (p. 102). Wilson's No. 2730 enumerated by Gagnepain 

 under this species we refer to P. himalayana. 



Parthenocissus (p. 102). At the end of the genus insert: 



Parthenocissus spec. 



Western Szech'uan: northeast of Sungpan Ting, common on rocks, alt. 

 2700-3000 m., August 1910 (No. 4480). 



This number is represented by a single specimen with immature fruit. It belongs 

 apparently to a new species, but the material is too incomplete for a sufficient de- 

 scription. It seems most nearly related to P. landuk Planchon and to P. tricus- 

 pidata Planchon; from the former it differs in its much smaller coarsely dentate 

 leaflets, the middle one obovate, and from the latter in the small, constantly 3- 

 foliolate leaves. 



Parthenocissus spec. 



Western Hupeh: Chanyang Hsien, alt. 1000 m., 1907 (No. 469; climber, 

 pedicels bright red and fruit blue-black; seeds only). 



Vitis pentagona (p. 103). Add as synonyms: 



Vitis Coignctiae Diels in Bot. Jahrb. XXIX. 461 (non Planchon) (1900). 

 Vitis ficifolia Bge., var. pentagona Pampanini in Nuov. Giorn. Bot. Ital. 

 XVII. 116 (1910). 



Transfer No. 1046" to Vitis betulifolia Diels & Gilg and insert after the 

 note: 



Vitis pentagona var. bellula Rehder, n. var. 



A typo recedit ramulis petioUsque glabris, foliis minoribus, 3-6 cm. longis et 

 2-4.5 cm. latis remote minute denticulatis, inflorescentiis gracilioribus basi tantum 

 breviter ramulosis fere glabris, floribus et fructibus seminibusque minoribus. 



Western Hupeh: Changlo Hsien, climbing over rocks, alt. 600-1000 m., 

 July 1907 (No. 77, type; 2-3 m., fruit black), without precise locality, May 1900 

 (Veitch Exped. No. 777). 



This variety differs from the type chiefly in the much smaller leaves and bears 

 the same relation to the typical form as V. flexuosa, var. parvifolia Gagnepain 

 bears to its type. Gagnepain had enumerated it under typical V. pentagona, but 

 remarks that it is a small-leaved form resembling V. flexuosa, var. parvifolia. As 

 young plants raised from seed of No. 77 and growing in the Arnold Arboretum have 

 preserved the characters of the parent plant, it seems advisable to distinguish this 

 form by a varietal name. 



Vitis reticulata (p. 103). Change the author citation as follows and add the 

 following synonym and specimens: Pampanini in Nuov. Giorn. Bot. Ital. XVII. 

 118, fig. 13 (1910). — Gagnepain in Lecomte, Not. Syst. II. 12 (1911). 



Vitis Wilsonae Hort. Veitch apud Gard. Chron. ser. 3, XLVI. 236, fig. 101 

 (nomen nudum) (1909). 



Western Hupeh: Hsing-shan Hsien, thickets, alt. 1300-2000 m., September 

 1907 (No. 242, 3^ m.); without precise locality, June 1902 (Veitch Exped. No. 

 1151). Western Szech'uan: Mt. Omei, June 1904 (Veitch Exped. No. 4825).
