    Abstract

    A recently discovered unpublished manuscript on Taiwania cryptomerioides (Cupressaceae) written by John Theo¬dore Buchholz (1888–1951), probably in 1941, is published with 25 added notes, plus a recently discovered unpublished diagram entitled “Phylogeny of conifers. J. T. Buchholz — 1941.” The manuscript and diagram are important in expanding our understand¬ing of the research and interpretations of this renowned worker on the anatomy, morphology (especially embryology), and systematics of gymnosperms.
