Description

<p>In the forests of eastern Hokkaido, Japan, we discovered Daphne kamtschatica Maxim. (Thymelaeaceae), which has been regarded as an endemic species of Kamchatka region in Russia. This is a new locality for Japan and the southernmost distribution for the species. This species has white flowers and long rhizomes for vegetative propagation and grows in understories of deciduous forests. It should be conserved because of its rarity.</p>
