This plant is nearest to A. spathulitolius, but differs from that by 

 having far broader leaves and mucronate or acute serrtions. More- 

 over haires are more scanty than that. I have named this plant in 

 honour of Mr. Shinzo Ohara, the chief of the Agricultural, industrial, 

 commercial, mineralogical and forestry departments of Corean Govern- 

 ment who is doing his best for our investigations of Corean Flora.
