Hab. in Monte Morrison. 



Near Acer Damdi Feanch. ; but differs from it in having 

 leaves with three lobes, two of which are very obscure ; also very 

 like A. laxißorum, but quite distinct from it. There is a specimen 

 exactly like this at Kew, labelled " Acer aff Hookerl, China, No. 

 218." It is very like A. HooJ^eri but quite peparable from it.

There is a specimen very much like this at Kew. The 

 specimen is labelled " Acer capillipes Maxim. Japonia, Nippon, 



* After completing this manuscript, I have found that the plant is very like, or perhaps 

 the same ns, Acer insularis which has quite recently been rleseribed by Mr. T. Making. His 

 specimen is, however, not accessible for us in the Herbarium at Tokyo.
