Not previously recorded from Indo-China, the only species of the genus 
admitted by Lecomte, F1. Gén. Indo-Chine 1 : 1005. 1912, being Aesculus 
chinensis Bunge. As the latter species is one of northern China (Chihli, 
Shansi, Shensi, Honan, Chekiang, Kiangsu) it is suspected that Lecomte’s 
Indo-Chinese record was based on an erroneously identified specimen. 
Possibly a glabrescent form of Aesculus Wilsonii Rehd. is represented 
by the Balansa specimen that Lecomte examined.
