Hab. Hei-lung-t'an prope Yunnan, leg. Sh. Kawai, Jan. 1917. Near C. japonica D. Don; but differs from it in having much shorter secondary scales with much shorter teeth. It is rather questionable whether the tree truly wild in tlic above given locality. Yet, it is said th'tt it really exists in a primeval forest near Tin-an (??).Prof. Kawai has an opinion that, thouf:^h the present tree may be identical with the Japanese Cryptomeria, the two (Cnincsc and Japanese) should decidedly be originated from different stocks, one from the Chinese origin and the other from the Japanese. Mr. G. II. Wilson has the same opinion. Moreover, tlic present plant has very different aspects i'rom the Japanese species in Lhc general features, as Prof. Kawai assured me from his observations on the spot. As the conifcrae is in gcncrnl very h>cri!, I am forced to the con- clusion that the Chinese species should be regarded as distinct from the Japanese, though tlic flilTcrcnce is- rather slight as is indicated by the mueb s
