Corylus wangii Hu Bulletin of the Fan Memorial Institute of Biology, Botany 8: 31 ( Hu 1937 ). – Type : China , Yunnan , Weisi Hsein, Yeh-Chih, 3400 m a.s.l., Aug. 1935 , C.W. Wang 68243 (lecto-, designated by Lin et al. 2007: 1249 : PE01062681!; isolecto-: A00033785!, K000859895!, P01903232!, PE01062680!). – Note: Corylus wangii was recognized in the Flora of China ( Li & Skvortsov 1999 ) and the World Checklist and Bibliography of Fagale s ( Govaerts & Frodin 1998 ). Hu (1948: 149) , on the other hand, regarded his species as synonymous to C. jacquemontii Decne. However , C. wangii has an involucre with many glandular trichomes, while C. jaquemontii is eglandular. Both C. jacquemontii and C. wangii have long laciniate involucre apices, but these are sometimes divided in the latter. This latter character is very well developed in C. ferox . The involucre of C. wangii are thus strikingly similar to C. × spinescens Rehder, an artificial hybrid between C. ferox var. tibetica and C. avellana .
