In 1867ꎬon the basis of probably one Korean flow ̄
ering specimenꎬ Oldham 7ꎬ Miquel described a new
form under Clematis paniculata Thunb.( =C. terniflora
DC. —Wangꎬ2003)ꎬgiving no morphological descrip ̄
tion and seeming to use the formal epithet‘pauciflora’
as the diagnostic character for this form. Ten years later
in 1877ꎬprobably noticing that this new plant was char ̄
acterized by having few carpels per flowerꎬshort stylesꎬ
and broadly winged achenesꎬ and distinctly different
from C. paniculataꎬMaximowicz raised this form to spe ̄
cific rankꎬand renamed it as C. brachyuraꎬnot using
the original formal epithet‘pauciflora’ due to the then
existense of a specific name C. pauciflora Nutt.
(1840)ꎬwhich represents a species endemic in south ̄
western North America(Wangꎬ2004).He paid particu ̄
lar attention to the curious feature of the short style
(whence the specific epithet)ꎬand compared the new
species with C. cadmia Buch. ̄Ham. ex Hook. f. &
Thoms.ꎬbelonging to sect. Viticella and characterized
also by having short stylesꎬand placed it in sect. Viti ̄

cella. In Kuntze’ s monograph ( 1885)ꎬC. brachyura
was treated as one of the subspecies under C. recta L.ꎬ
an ally of C. terniflora DC. ꎬprobably according to the
erect habit and the more or less similar floral structure.
In Prantl’s classification of ClematisꎬC. brachyura was
not included. Afterwardsꎬ this species was described
two times as new by Palibin in 1898 and by Nakai in
1912. In 1955ꎬ on the basis of C. brachyura with u ̄
nique broadly winged achenesꎬ Tamura established a
new monotypic section Pterocarpaꎬ placed near sect.
Flammula and sect. Viticellaꎬand this new section was
unanimously accepted by later students of Clematis
( Snoeijerꎬ 1992ꎻ Johnsonꎬ 1997ꎻ Grey ̄Wilsonꎬ 2000ꎻ
Wang & Liꎬ2005).
In habit and floral structureꎬC. brachyura shows
resemblance to C. mandshurica Rupr.and C. terniflora
DC. ꎬdiffering from the latters mainly in its short style
and broadly winged achenesꎬwhich may result from the
adaptation to wind dispersal of fruit.On account of pos ̄
sessing such curious advanced morphological charac ̄
tersꎬ C. brachyura is distinctly more advanced than
themꎬ and might be derived from sect. Clematisꎬ to
which C. mandshurica and C. terniflora belong(Wangꎬ
2003ꎻWang & Liꎬ2005).

From the herbarium material cited above it can be
seen that in C. brachyuraꎬ the flowers are usually 4 ̄
sepalled. Howeverꎬ sometimes 5 - 6 ̄sepalled flowers
may be observed. For exampleꎬin a plant of Oldham 7ꎬ
deposited in GHꎬone flower is 5 ̄sepalledꎬwhile other
ones 4 ̄sepalledꎬand in Faurie 12ꎬdeposited in Pꎬthe
terminal flower of a terminal 3 ̄flowered cyme has six
sepalsꎬwhile the two lateral flowers have four sepals
each. Soꎬthe sepal number per flower in this species is
variable from four to sixꎬand the variety hexasepalaꎬde ̄
scribed according to sepal numberꎬcan not be recog ̄
nized.
