450 CORRECTIONS AND ADDITIONS TO VOLUME II 



Fraxinus Paxiana (p. 259). Strike out " Veitch Exped. No. 4085 " which 

 belongs to Fraxinus chinensis. 



Fraxinus chinensis (p. 260). Add the following number: 



Western Hupeh: north and south of Ichang, alt. 300-1000 m., 1907 (No. 

 423; tree 7 m. tall; seeds only). 



Fraxinus (p. 262). At the end of the genus insert: 



Fraxinus spec. 



Western Hupeh: Changyang Hsien, alt. 1500 m., 1907 (No. 1392; tree 8 m 

 tall, girth 0.6 m.; seeds only). 



Fraxinus spec. 



Western Hupeh: Fang Hsien, woods, alt. 2000-2600 m., 1910 (No. 4431; 

 tree 5-12 m. tall; plants only). 



Pjrrus serotina (p. 263). Add the following number:

 tree 7 m. tall, flowers white, fruit globose; seeds only). 



Pyrus Calleryana (p. 264). Instead of " No. 2775 " read " No. 2975," and add 

 the following number: 



Western Hupeh: common around Ichang, alt. 1000 m., 1907 (No. 365; bush 

 or small tree; seeds only). 



Malus Sieboldii, var. arborescens (p. 294). For " Wilson No. 7428 " read 

 " Wilson No. 7423," and add as synonyms: 



Pirus subcrataegifolia L6veille in Fedde, Rep. Spec. Nov. VII. 199 (1909). 

 Crataegus Taquetii Leveille, 1. c. X. 377 (1912). 



Chaenomeles japonica (p. 298). Add as a synonym: 



Cydonia japonica, var. alpina Ito, Icon. PL Jap. I. t. 3 (1911). 



Rosa caudata (p. 321). To this species probably belong the following synonyms: 



Rosa setipoda Baker in Willmott, Gen. Rosa, I. fig. 55 (non Hemsley & Wilson) 



(1911), quoad figuram fructus tantum. 

 Rosa jaluana Baker in Willmott, Gen. Rosa, II. fig. 164, 499 (non Komarov) 



(1914), quoad fructus descriptionem figuramque et plantam Chinae 



occidentaUs. 



The figures of the fruits of R. jaluana and of R. setipoda represent apparently 

 a form of R. caudata with naked or nearly naked pedicels and fruits. The immature 

 fruits of R. jaluana are described by Komarov as sphaeroid or sphaeroid-pyriform 

 which is an entirely different shape from that of the fruit figured and described by 

 Baker. It is, moreover, very unhkely that a species of northeastern Asia should 

 appear also in western China. 



Rosa setipoda (p. 323). In the citation "Willmott, Gen. Rosa," strike out 

 "fig. 55" and insert " (exclud. fig. 55)," also add the following synonjTu: 



Rosa caudata Baker in Willmott, Gen. Rosa, II. fig. 163 (1914), quoad figuram 

 fructus tantum. 



The figures of R. caudata and R. setipoda have been probably interchanged by
