Euonymus Dielsiana Hayata (non Lcesnek) in Mater. Fl. Formos, 

 p. 58. 



The present plant is certainly near E. Dielsiana LcEs. from which it 

 is distinguishable in having 5-merous flowers. It is collected by Mr. S. 

 Sasaki and myself in my last excursion to the island in a forest by Suisha- 

 lake on an altitude of nearly 2000 ft. The tree is very well known among 

 savages, on account of its superior quality for making a kind of bow.
