Shih and the new combination is C. viridifolium (Hand. -Mazz.) Shih. The new records
in China are C. serratuloides (L.) Hill., C. incanum (S. G. Gmel.) Fisch. ex MB., C. la-
natum (Roxb. ex Willd.) Spreng and C. alatum (S. G. Gmel) Bobr.
The Chinese Cirsium is divided into 8 sections in the present paper, of which 3 are
