Abstract

Abstract:

The present paper deals with taxonomic studies on the genera Lathraea

Linn. and Christisonia Gard. (Orobanchaceae) in China. In the genus Lathraea, only a

single species in China, L. japonica Miq., is recongnized in the paper. It occurs in sou-

thern Shaanxi, southern Gansu, southeastern Sichuan, northern Guizhou and northern

Guangdong, also in Japan. L. miqueliana Franch. et Sav., L. chinfushanica Hu et Tang

and L. japonica Miq. var. miqueliana (Franch. et Sav.) Ohwi are treated as new synon-

yms of L. japonica Miq. in this paper.

In the genus Christisonia, the most of collections from China, which were identi-

fied as C. sinensis G. Beck before, are treated as a new synonym of C. hookeri C. B.

Clarke. A few collections of this genus from China, which were mistakenly described

as Gleadovia lepoense Hu snd G. kwangtungense Hu, should be transferred to Christi-

sonia hookeri C. B. Clarke. It is distributed in southeastern and south China, westwards

to the Himalayas.
