It is worthy of notice that L. obscurum which is not known from 

 centro-southern China, is found in the alpine regions of Formosa. We 

 have discussed in the previous volume that Chama^cyparis in Coniferte 

 ranges three regions — North America, Japan and Formosa. Here we see 

 that Lye. obscurum acts the same part as Chamsecyparis, and extends over 

 North America, Japan, and Formosa.
