INTO THE FLORA OF CHINA. 59 
73. j Fagara chusan. Fraxini folio angustiore. 
The leaves of this are not only narrower than the last, but 
prickly underneath''and the prickles are very thick set on the 
branches and between the leaves. 
74. Fagara chusan. Rhois virginianae folio, cauie alato. What 
chaw in Chinese. Gazoph. tab. 36, fig*. 8. 
These leaves very much resemble the Virginian Sumach, 
with a winged or welted stalk, with lightly serrated trans¬ 
parent notches. Dr. Sloan has a fair specimen of this in fruit, 
which ripens in October. 
As has been shown above, this seems to be Zanthoxylum JSungei. PI* 
sin : hua tsiao. 
75. Frutex chusan. Fagi folio, fructu sulcato. 
This very much resembles No. 926 Musei nostri, but is in all 
parts much larger, especially its leaves, which are very like the 
Carolina plant at No. 915. Its fruit grows naked at the top of 
the branches from a reversed calyx, and is sulcated like the 
capsule of an Adbatode. 
76. Qelseminumchusan. folio Betae hirsuto. 
The leaves somewhat like Beet, but hoary, the flower is 
leaved, in shape much resembling Nerium. The apices on 
each stamen seem double headed, the calyx is quinquefied and 
hoary. It grows spikated, as I observed in a very large 
specimen amongst Dr. Sloane’s dry plants. 
77. Seder a, arbor ea C. B. 305. 1. 
I can see no difference betwmen this and our common Tree 
Ivy. ( Hedera Helix L. var. arborea). 
I may observe that among Cantor’s Chusan plants Hedera Helix. L. is 
mentioned. 
78. Spurge Laurel. 
Pet. means Daphne laureola. L.—Fortune has gathered D. Fortunei 
Lindl. in Chusan. 
79. Lycium chusan. Pruni minoris folio. 
The twigs of this end in a thorn, the leaves are like the 
slow but less-finely serrated, growing inordinately on very short 
stalks. The berries are black and wrinkled like pepper and of 
that bigness. They stand on a f inch footstalk in a small 
round calyx. Under the thin outerskin lies one or two kernels. 
An undetermined species of Lycium is noticed in Cantor’s collection. 
L. chinense . L. has been observed in North-China as well as in the South. 
80. Mandaru forte chusan. folio acuminato, alte bifido. 
The leaves which are all of this plant I have yet seen, seem 
to be of the Malabar kind of Mandaru. The leaf is deep cut 
and glaucous underneath.
