Abstract:

In the present paper the longstanding confusion of three uncertain spe-

cies of Chloranthus, C. monostachys R. Br., C. pernyanus Solms-Laub. and C. kiangsien-

sis Metcalf is clarified. In addition to the new record of C. nervosus Coll. et Hemsl. to

the flora of China, the distributional ranges of Sarcandra hainanensis (Pei) Swamy et

Bailey and Hedyosmum orientale Merr. et Chun are also found to be much bigger than

previously known.

Key words: Chloranthus monostachys, C.pernyanus, C.Kiangsiensis, C.nervosus, Sarcandra hainanensis, Hedyosmum orientale
