Introduction

The history of botanical study in the island of Formosa dates back as
early as the middle of the last century. In 1858, WILFORD, the earliest
collector in Formosa, made some collections near the coast of the island.
Later, in 1864, OLDIIAM visited the northern part of the coast. Then
SWINHOE, WATTERR, HANCOCK, STEERE, and later, FORD, CAMPBELL, PLAY-
FAIR, and a few others made collections in different places, mostly in
the lowlands. These collections were studied by many botanists such as
HANCE, MAXIMOWICZ, HEMSLEY, and others. Later on, during 1893 and
1894, DR. A. HENRY made an extensive collection in the southern part of
Formosa. He is perhaps the latest European botanist who has carefully
studied the island.

It was not until the acquisition of Formosa by Japan, in 1897, that
Japanese botanists began to pay attention to the botany of the island.
After that time, many collectors among whom we may mention Messrs.

2 INTRODUCTION

MAKING, Ow ATARI, and MIYAKE, were sent there by the Imperial University.
They all brought back to the Herbarium at Tokyo good collections, which
were studied by Prof. J. MATSUMURA.

But no great progress was made in the botanical study of the island,
until in 1904 the Government of Formosa decided to carry out a botanical
survey of the whole island. Mr. T. KAWAKAMI with several assistants was
then engaged to collect plants, and I devoted myself to the investigation of
the materials sent by the collectors to the Herbarium at Tokyo. It was in
these circumstances that, in 1905, I wrote "Enumeratio Plautarum Formos-
auarum "n in conjunction with Prof. J. MATSUMURA. At that time, owing
to the hostility of the savages, the botanical survey did not extend to
regions having an elevation of more than 3000 ft. Fortunately, however,
the Government of Formosa has gradually succeeded in getting control of
the mountains. During 1905-1907, several excursions to the mountainous
districts were carried out by the Government. In 1908, as a result of the
study of the mountain-collections, I published " Flora Montana Formosre^",
in which a considerable number of new species were described.

Since that publication, I have had many more collections from the
island. These collections are, in greater part, from the mountainous regions,
and contain a considerable number of novelties. As the flora of the island
has a close affinity to the floras of Japan and China, it is very important,
in working up the materials, to make an exhaustive comparison of the collec-
tions with specimens from those two countries. At the same time, as the flora
of the island contains a considerable number of Indian elements including
the Himalayas and the Malay peninsula and archipelago, it is equally
desirable for the work that specimens of these regions should also be com-
pared. For a comparison with the Japanese specimens, the Herbarium at
Tokyo will answer fairly well, as it includes nearly all Japanese plants
though not exhaustively. Chinese plants, however, are here very poorly
represented. I therefore found it very unsatisfactory to work up so big a

collection only in the Herbarium at Tokyo. Moreover, as a considerable
number of Chinese plants are represented in the Herbarium at Kew and
also in that at Dahlem, and as the type specimens of FRANCHET are especially
preserved in the Herbarium at Paris, and those of MAXIMOWICZ at St.
Petersburg, I thought it very necessary for my work to see all the plants
represented in the principal herbaria of the West.

It was my great good fortune that I was given an opportunity of
visiting these different herbaria, in order to make an exhaustive
comparison of my materials with the collections preserved in them. With
this intention, I first went to Kew taking all the materials with me.
There I pursued my work with specimens of the floras to which the
flora of Formosa is more or less related. The comparison made in most
cases, was confined to the flora of Asiatic regions, especially of China,
Korea, India, the Himalayas, and the Malay peninsula and archipelago ;
but in some cases it was extended to Australia, the Arctic and Antarctic
regions, Europe, Africa, America, and even to Polynesia. I found that
many of the species in my collections are represented in the Chinese
herbarium at Kew, and also among the specimens from other regions. At
the same time, I found also that the greater part of my materials are not
yet represented at Kew, and that in all probability they are species not
yet described. After finishing my work at Kew,15 I went to the Herbarium
at Paris, in order to see the type specimens of Chinese plants mainly
described by FRANCHET. Later my work took me to the Herbarium at
Dahlem, where are preserved many collections of Asiatic flora. My
purpose in going to Dahlem was to see especially the specimens mentioned
in Prof. DIELS' " Die Flora von Central Chiua."2) In Dalileni, as in Paris,
I devoted myself to making notes of the specimens preserved there, as I
had not brought my materials with me. I especially devoted myself to

D During my stay at Kew, I was away from my work for a little more than a week, when
I went to Brussels to take put in the International Botanical Congress, then being held
there, at which I presented a paper entitled " Botanical Survey of the Government of Formosa,
with short Sketches on the Vegetation and Flora of the Island." This paper is now in press at
Brussels.

making sketches, 011 tracing -paper, of the specimens preserved only in
Dahleni and nowhere else, so that I could make a close comparison with
these sketches on my return to Tokyo. After finishing my work, I went
with the same purpose to the Herbarium at St. Petersburg, in order to see
the type specimens of MAXLMOWICZ. During my work on the continent, I was
successful in placing some species which I had not been able to determine
at Kew. Still, many of the plants in my collections, which remained
undetermined, are not represented in any of the herbaria on the continent.
It is, therefore, higlily probable that they are species not yet described.
Shortly after my return to Tokyo, I finished preparing my " Materials for a
Flora of Formosa ", which had been undertaken during my stay at Kew.
The paperT) is now in press in Tokyo.

To mention the number of species in the flora2 > of the island, known to
us up to the present time, there are in the Enumeratio^ 1999 species belong-
ing to 701 genera and 153 families. In my Flora Montana4) 392 species are
mentioned, belonging to 26G genera and 70 families. In my " Materials for
a Flora of Formosa ", I have mentioned 735 species, belonging to 343 genera
and 109 families, thus adding to our present knowledge of Formosan flora
567 species, 72 genera and 2 families. Excluding all those species which
appear for a second or third time in the above three paper, the total
number of the plants of the island is 2660 species, belonging to 836 genera
and 156 families, thus adding 292 species to the number given in " List of
Plants in Formosa," quite recently published by Mr. T. KAwAKAMi.5) At
present, the number of species has nearly doubled since the publication of
Dr. A. HENKY'S preliminary work.G) Thanks to the encouragement and

INTRODUCTION O

assistance given to botanical research by the Government of Formosa, we
now have a fair knowledge of the flora of this interesting island.

A few remarks about the publication of the present work, which is to
Ije continued in a long series, may not be out of place. For a long time,
I have had a desire to publish a flora of Formosa, accompanied by icones,
to be issued yearly in separate numbers, with some fixed allowance for this
special publication, which might be completed in fifteen years. In 1909,
I asked Mr. K. OSHLMA, then the Civil Governor of Formosa, to consider
the matter of publication. Owing to the gracious aid he extended to me,
it has been possible to arrange that the publication shall be carried on for
fifteen years, beginning this year. The icones will contain (500 plates, illus-
trating nearly all the plants to be found in Formosa, and accompanied by
descriptions. This will be issued yearly for fifteen years in separate numbers,
each containing 40 plates.

The present fasciculus contains all the plants belonging to Polypetalne
known to us from the island up to the present time, accompanied by 40
plates mainly illustrating the species newly described by myself in my
" Materials for a Flora of Formosa." The plan of the present work was at
first to give full descriptions of all plants so as to serve as a guide to
students of the Formosan flora. The time, however, being very limited, I
have found it difficult to carry out this plan, and therefore am obliged to
be content with giving only descriptions of plants of special interest. I hope
to be able to add full accounts in the next fasciculus, and to pursue the
plan through the whole series.

In conclusion, I wish to tender my hearty thanks to all the officials of
the Government of Formosa who have helped me in the publication of my
work. My very cordial thanks are due especially to Mr. T. KAWAKAMI,
who has assisted me in many ways.

the type in stamens, achenes, and especially in glabrous sepals turning
black when dried. The type has usually larger flowers Avith sepals twice as

In my paper above cited, I mention that the present plant agrees quite
well with the description of Aralis taraxacifolia ANDERS given in HOOK.
f. Fl. Brit. lud. I. p. 13<i, and is also very like the European A. erenosa,
SCOP. Although I did not, at that time, see ANDERSON'S specimen, I
thought that the plant must be identical with A. tar fixacif alia. While
studying here at Kew, I have compared it with the type of the same
species, and have found that they are quite different. The Formosan plant
is distinguishable from the Indian in having nearly erect and stouter pods,

50 CRUCIFER.E.

larger seeds and smaller leaves, and also in bearing very long stolons. The
Indian plant appears to be of more tender habit, with curved pods,
narrower, smaller seeds, and larger, thinner leaves. Moreover, the present
plant differs from A. arenosci SCOP, in having longer pods, smaller flowers,
and leaves with more rounded lobes.

The present species differs from other species of this genus in having
reniformed leaves. The leaves are somewhat like C. asarifolia LINN., in
which species they are never cordate or reniformed. The plant is also near
C. violcefolia O. S. SCHUTZ. from which is separable in having rather augulate
leaves and very much smaller flowers. Flowers of my plant aie 3 mm. long,
while those of the Chinese C. violcefolia are 8 mm. long, or even more.

representing a variety of the type.

pinnate spathulate in outline, 6 cm. long (including petals) 1 cm. broad,

The present variety is easily distinguishable from the type in having
much more rounded lobes of leaflets. There is a specimen very much like
this variety at Kew which is labelled Oardainine Idrsuta Lixx. with a question
mark.

There is a specimen very much like this in the Kew herbarium. It is
labelled C. hirsuta Lixx., but quite different from the type. As the present

CRUCIFER.E. 53

plant is quite easily distinguishable from the type of C. Idrsuta LINN.,
it is advicable, in my opinion, to regard it as representing a variety of the
type, rather than to regard it as a form of it.

In my paper above cited, I mention that the present plant is referable
to Ilypericum atlenuatum CHOIS., although there have been some doubts
about its being identical with CHOLSY'S plant. While studying here at
Kew, I have compared the plant with the type of the species and found that
they are so very different that it hardly needs pointing out. The Formosan
plant comes very near H. perforalum ; but differs from it in having ob-
tuse or even rounded sepals. H. perforatum has usually very acute sepals.

In the Enumeratio Plantarum Formosanarum, I referred this plant to
C. excavat«, thinking that it might be a small form of that species.
On examining a set of several specimens collected in different parts of the
island, I have found that the plant is always of the same constant form and
is quite different from the type of the named species in many points but
especially in its leaves which are in the latter species very much larger,
attaining the size of even 3-4-times those of the Formosan plant.

differs in -having leaves which are retused at the apex. There is in the
Herbarium at Tokyo a specimen from the Loo-choo islands which has been
identified with L Hanccana MAXIM, by Dr. T. ITO in his " Tent. Fl. Lutch.

described, and I have wondered if the Loo-chooau plant be really identical
with /. Ilanccana. As is described by MAXIMOWICZ in his " Coriar. Ilic,

flora), petiolum bis vel ter superantes, pedicelli calyce aoquilongi, nores 4-meri

pedunculis umbellaiuni 5-6 nun. lougis, petioluin seqnantibus, pedieellis florium
circ. 3 mm. longis florein 2-plo superantibus."* In comparing the above
descriptions, we see clearly that the Loo-chooari plant is not identical with
MAXIMOWICZ'S species. As to the identification of the Loo-choo plant with
the present one, I am not as yet in a position to decide it. I can only add
that they are very similar.

When I mentioned the present plant in my " Fl. Mont. Formos.", I
was merely comparing it with a Loo-choo plant which had been determined
by Dr. T. ITO, and referred to E. echinata WALL, in his " Tent. Fl. Lutch.
p. 371." As the Formosau plant is exactly identical with Dr. ITO'S plant, I used
the same name for my plant. While working here at Kew, I have compar-
ed with Mr. SPRAGUE the present plant with the type of the named species,
and have found that they are clearly not identical. The former is easily dis-
tinguishable from the latter by many points, but especially by the very much
fewer and much more slender spines on the fruit. In WALLICH'S species, the
spines are much more numerous and stronger. Our plant is very near E.
siibsessilis SPRAGUE ( = E. ecldnatus LOUR.), but differs from it in having
much fewer and more slender spines.

The present plant is near C. articiHatus, but differs in having more
rounded leaves and transversely wrinkled carpels when dried. The leaves
are nearly rounded or slightly cordate at the base, shortly acute or nearly
rounded at the apex, remotely serrulate on the margin, while those of (7.
articulates are nearly obovate, acute or rounded but never cordate at the
base. The carpels of the latter plant are not wrinkled but rather smooth
even when dried.

The present plant is described in my paper " Fl. Mont. Formos." as re-
presenting a variety of Wiamnm arguta MAXIM. I have examined the type of the
latter plant at Kew, and found that the difference between the type and the
variety is so great that I think it better to raise up the latter to specific
rank. The Formosan Rlmmnus differs from the other in having slender
flowers and longer styles, and especially in the supra-axillary inflorescence.

The present plant is in every respect very like Rhus Toxicodendron
LINN., but differs from it in having densely bristled fruits. The species
appears to be referable to Trichocarpese, on account of its bristled
exocarpium. It is also to be referable to Veneuata3 by the meso-
carpium and general characters of the fruit. The plant may better be placed
between the two sections. Bristled fruits are sometimes found in the Japa-
nese R. Toxicodendron, though they are not so conspicuous as in the
Formosan species.

The present plant is, in all respects, like 1). villcsa DC. But in this
species, the seed is always one in each pod and the standard has a dis-
tinct spurs on both sides of the lamina. Accordingly, I think the plant
is specifically separable from D. villosa DC. The leaves of the specimen,
upon which the above description is based, are of a thinly hairy form.
Here is another form with villose leaves which are much smaller than the
leaves of the other form. The villose form seems to be a young stage of
the other.

Owing to the limitation of pages of this fascicle, it has become impossible
to treat here all the Polype talons plants. The author is, therefore, obliged
to be content with giving families from Ranimculacese to Jiosacese
in this fascicle. As copper- plates had been already finished, illustrations,
of some families between Saxifragese to Cornacese are given here.
Families from Saxifragese upwards will be treated in the next fascicle.
