The present plant is distinct from any species of the genus 

 known to us. The nearest congener is T. tenerrima Wight which 

 is however perfectly distinct from our plant. It is named in honour 

 of Mr. K. OsHiMA, Ex-Civil Grovernor of Formosa, by whose 

 graciousness extended towards myself, I was able to visit the 

 principal herbaria of the West.
