Julius Von Kennel
Julius von Kennel (10 June 1854 – 24 January 1939) was a German zoologist and entomologist born in Schwegenheim. He studied at the University of Würzburg, where he came under the influence of zoologist Karl Semper (1832-1893). Later, he worked as an assistant to Karl August Möbius (1825-1908) at the University of Kiel, and following his habilitation, he returned to the University of Würzburg. In 1882-83 he participated on a research expedition to Trinidad and Venezuela (including the Orinoco River region). Later, he served as a lecturer at the ''Forstakademie'' in Aschaffenburg, and from 1887 to 1915, was a full professor of zoology at the University of Dorpat. Kennel was an authority on Microlepidoptera, and in particular the family- Tortricidae ( tortrix moths). In 1898-99 he was president of the Estonian Naturalists' Society, and in 1922 became director of the zoological museum in Riga.

Corylus Heterophylla
''Corylus heterophylla'', the Asian hazel, is a species of hazel native to eastern Asia in northern and central China, Korea, Japan, and southeastern Siberia.Flora of China''Corylus heterophylla''/ref> It is a deciduous shrub or small tree growing to tall, with stems up to thick grey bark.

Schisandra Chinensis
''Schisandra chinensis'' (common name: magnolia-vine, Chinese magnolia-vine, schisandra), whose fruit is called magnolia berry or five-flavor-fruit (from Chinese 五味子 ''wǔwèizi''), is a vine plant native to forests of Northern China, the Russian Far East and Korea. Wild varieties are also found in Japan. It is hardy in USDA Zone 4. The fruits are red berries in dense clusters around long. Etymology, common names, and taxonomy The genus ''Schisandra'' was first published by André Michaux in 1803, the name deriving from the Greek words ''schizein'' ('to split') and ''andros'' ('man'), referring to the separate anther cells on the stamens. In the 21st century, ''Schisandra chinensis'' belongs to the family of Schisandraceae. In earlier years, it was assumed that the species belonged to the family of Magnoliaceae, hence the name ''Chinese magnolia-vine''. However, many differences in plant phenology between Schisandra and members of Magnoliaceae led to the formatio ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Abies Holophylla
''Abies holophylla'', also called needle fir or Manchurian fir, is a species of fir native to mountainous regions of northern Korea, southern Ussuriland, and China in the provinces of Heilongjiang, Jilin, and Liaoning. It is an evergreen coniferous tree growing to tall and in trunk diameter with a narrowly conical crown of horizontal spreading branches. The bark is scaly and gray-brown with resin blisters. The leaves ("needles") are flattened, long and thick, spread at right angles from the shoot, and end in a point. They spread on two sides, but not flat like for example in silver fir. Usually they more or less rise up forming with the shoot a V-shape empty compartment above it. Unlike in silver fir, the leaves here are sharp and prickly, without any indentation at the top. They are bright green above and whitish-green below with 2 whitish strips, each of which is formed by 7–10 wax-covered stomatal bands. The shoots are glabrous, shiny yellow-gray when young and tu ...

Syringa Reticulata
''Syringa reticulata'', the Japanese tree lilac. is a species of flowering plant in the family Oleaceae native to eastern Asia, which is grown as an ornamental in Europe and North America. Description It is a deciduous small tree growing to a height of , rarely to , with a trunk up to , rarely in diameter; it is the largest species of lilac, and the only one that regularly makes a small tree rather than a shrub. The leaves are elliptic-acute, long and broad, with an entire margin, and a roughish texture with slightly impressed veins.

The fruit is a dry, smooth brown capsule (15–25 mm long), splitting in two to release the two winged seeds.Mitomori''Syringa reticulata''(in JapaneseHuxley, A., ed. (1992). ''New RHS Di ...

Deutzia Hamata
''Deutzia'' ( or ) is a genus of about 60 species of flowering plants in the family Hydrangeaceae, native to eastern and central Asia (from the Himalayas east to Japan and the Philippines), and Central America and also Europe. By far the highest species diversity is in China, where 50 species occur. The species are shrubs ranging from in height. Most are deciduous, but a few subtropical species are evergreen. The leaves are opposite, simple, with a serrated margin. The flowers are produced in panicles or corymbs; they are white in most species, sometimes pink or reddish. The fruit is a dry capsule containing numerous small seeds. Identification of the species is very difficult, requiring often microscopic detail of the leaf hairs and seed capsule structure. ''Deutzia'' is named after the 18th century Dutch patron of botany, Johan van der Deutz. ;Selected species Cultivation and uses The deutzias are fairly new to gardens: the exception, ''D. scabra'', was noticed in Japane ...

Philadelphus Tenuifolius
''Philadelphus'' () (mock-orange) is a genus of about 60 species of shrubs from 3–20 ft (1–6 m) tall, native to North America, Central America, Asia and (locally) in southeast Europe. They are named "mock-orange" in reference to their flowers, which in wild species look somewhat similar to those of oranges and lemons (''Citrus'') at first glance, and smell of orange flowers and jasmine (''Jasminum''). But ''Philadelphus'' is a basal asterid, not closely related to ''Jasminum'' (advanced asterids), and among the eudicots quite distant from ''Citrus'' (advanced rosids). An entirely misleading name for ''Philadelphus'' that is sometimes encountered is ''syringa''; this properly refers to the lilacs, which are fairly close relatives of jasmine. The connection of the two shrubs lies in their introduction from Ottoman gardens to European ones, effected at the same time by the Holy Roman emperor's ambassador to the Sublime Porte, Ogier Ghiselin de Busbecq, who returned to Vie ...
