Chinensis (cultivated specimens) is in this respect similar to y. 

 Vtrginiana ; J. fxtidissima (coll. Hohenacker) has the strongest

 phxnicea (from Itah) and y. thurifeta (from Spain) are less 

 marked, more like Fig. 3, and y. excelsa (coll. Kotschy) still less 

 so, somewhat like Fig. 4, and only a little more than y. Sahina

 dioecious ; no specific characters can be founded on these pecu- 

 liarities.
