In this paper we clarify the identity of C. sabiaefolia for the flora of Taiwan and further document C. acutifolia in Taiwan. C. sabiaefolia was characterized by branchlets without thorns; leaves thinly herbaceous leaves, 7.5-10 cm long, base rounded, veins obscure on both sides; and densely tomentose on inner surface petals. C. acutifolia was described as branchlets with thorns; leaves coriaceous or thinly coriaceous, 9-16 cm long, base acute, veins distinct on both sides; and petals glabrous but tomentose at the margin. Taxonomic treatment, line drawing, and photographs are provided here.}, DOI = {10.6165/tai.2004.49(4).225} }
