In the present paper a new species, Osmanthus gracilinervis Chia ex R. L.

Lu, is described from Guangxi. The new species is also distributed in Guangdong, Jiangxi,

Zhejiang, Hunan and Sichuan. Based on the analysis of a great deal of specimens, eight spe-

cies, i.e. Osmanthus corymbosus H. W. Li, O. longispermus H. T. Chang, O. angustifolius H.

T. Chang, O. triandrus H. T. Chang, O. longicarpus H. T. Chang, O. omeiensis Fang ex H.

T. Chang, O. nanchuanensis H. T. Chang and 0. cylindricus H. T. Chang, are reduced as

the synonyms of O. marginatus (Champ. ex Benth.) Hemsl. var. marginatus. O. longissimus

H. T. Chang and O. pachyphyllus H. T. Chang are respectively reduced to varieties of O.

marginatus, i.e.O. marginatus var. longissimus (H.T. Chang) R. L. Lu and var. pachy-

phyllus (H. T.Chang) R. L. Lu. And finally O. maximus H. T. Chang is treated in this
