rigida Sieb. & Zucc. is represented, there being, however, great differ- 
ences in the indumentum between this Indo-Chinese form and Japanese 
material and in the details of the reticulations. In the latter the ultimate 
reticulations on the lower surfaces of the leaves are more or less foveo- 
late, in the present one the areolae are smooth, not at all impressed.
