being the same,as Iligera mollissima W. W. Sm.; the three Henry numbers 
cited by him are retained as representing I. cordata Dunn as apparently 
Dr. Smith interpreted Dunn’s species from the Henry material when he de- 
scribed Zligera mollissima W. W. Sm. Any other interpretation would in- ‘ 
volve the acceptance of Illigera cordata Dunn as appertaining to the species 
with softly pubescent suborbicular leaves, the reduction of /. mollissima 
W. W. Sm. to synonymy,; and the description of Henry 0902, 99024, 10649 
(specimens of all of which are before me) as a new species. Jlligera 
mollissima W. W. Sm., as thus interpreted, is represented in the herbarium 
of the Arnold Arboretum by the following specimens: Szechuan, Forrest 
21403 ; Yunnan, Delavay 3600 and two sheets 5.7. (distributed as 1. cordata 
Dunn), R.C.Ching 20217, April 25, 1939. 
Illigera cordata Dunn, Jour. Linn. Soc. Bot. 38: 296. 1908. 
To “save” this name, as explained above, and to “save” Illigera mollissima 
W. W. Sm., I restrict Dunn’s species to the cited Henry specimens, 9902, 
9902A, 10649, referring Hancock 538 to Illigera mollissima W. W. 5m. 
The species, as, thus restricted is further represented by Maire s.n. from 
Yunnan and Wälson.4091 from ‘western China.” To be eliminated from 
the original description “foliolis ‘suborbicularibus - - - ubique molliter 
pubescentibus? ; the leaflets are ovate to oblong-ovate, acuminate, slightlv 
but distinctly cordate, sparinglv short-pubescent becoming subglabrous, and
