Chionanthus cuspidatus was described by Blume. Linociera Sw. is synonymous with Chionanthus and new combinations are made for L. longipetala Merr., L. oligantha Merr., L. pachyphylla Merr. and L. pluriflora Knobl. Five new species, C. havilandii, C. pulustris, C. polycephalus, C. porcatus and C. rugosus and a new variety of C. elaeocarpus, var globosus, are described.
