J.M. Delavay 128
(K!, P06810941!). – Note: this variety is mainly characterized by the long glandular trichomes especially on the petioles. Specimens of Delavay bearing the Delavay’s original number
128
(see
Holstein & Weigend 2016a
) were likely collected at different localities. Burkill, however, only cited one of these gatherings, being “gorges of Lanho near Lankong”. The collections from “les bois à Yang in Chan près Lankong” from the same date (K!, P06810941!) are not
syntypes
, but may be regarded as original material. However, they differ in being somewhat tomentose and lacking glandular trichomes on the petioles and the lower leaf lamina, linking to
C. yunnanensis
. The specimen chosen as a
lectotype
here shows the double-serrate bract margin as a name-giving character for this taxon, as well as the young male catkins that typically develop in
C. heterophylla
as the fruits mature.

(lecto-, designated here: PE00021973!; isolecto-: PE00734547!). – Note: the collection number
8411
in
the protologue is mistaken, because
Y. Tsiang 8411
is a species of
Pyrus
, conversely
Y. Tsiang 8441
is a
Corylus
and matches the other collection data from the protologue.
Corylus kweichowensis
is regarded by
Liang (1988)
as a distinct species (with a distinct
C. heterophylla
var.
sutchuensis
) and treated as such in the
Flora Sichuanica
(Editorial
Board of the Flora Sichuanica 2012
).
