  The natural grasslands of China are complex. There are meadow-, steppe-, desertsteppe grasslands etc. There are 2,520 species of wild herbage belonging to 512 genera, 88 families in the natural grasslands. According to the productive need for grazing, the characteristics of grassland type and the bioecological peculiarities of the herbage, it is necessary to choose the excellent species of herbage for improvenment of the natural grassland and for use in cultivation, but not to limit to any particular genus or family. Basing on this principle the author recommended 46 species of herbage and simply described their bioecological characteristics, nutrition value and use for introduction of every species.

  It is generally accepted that tea plant (Thea sinensis L.) is originated in China, where has numerous varieties, According to the literature, the selected work of tea plants may be traced as early as to the 3rd-5th century A.D. The number of varieties discovered in recent years reached more than 300. Besides, a large number of wild species were discovered. In all tea varieties, the crown canopy, leaf size and the date of sprouting were different. It was proposed that according to the crown canopy, leaf size and the date of sprouting. The principle of the classification of Chinese tea varieties may be 3 orders. The first order named “group”, it contains macrophanerophyte group, microphanerophyte group, and frutex group. The second order named “type”, it contains extreme large leaf size, large leaf size, medium leaf size and small leaf size. The third order named “species”, it contains the early-sprouting species, medium-sprouting species and late-sprouting species.

  A fossil plant, Yanliaoia sinensis gen. et sp. nov. of late Jurassic is described from western Liaoning. It is an arborescent conifer, deciduous, with branchlets and leaves resemble closely those of Sequoia sempervirens.. The form and structure of female cones and cone scales are similar to those of extinct genus Elatides and living genera Cunninghamia, Taiwania and Athrotaxis, The female cone, however, is smaller. Cone scales are spirally arranged, woody, thin and ellipticzl, having a short spine at their apex. Seeds, globuloidal, without wings, about ten on each scale, and longitudinally arranged in three to four ranks, which occupy nearly the whole area of the ventral surface of ovuliferous scales. The author believes that Yanliaoa and Elatides are two closely allied genera, evolved roughly in parallel with each other in the late Mesozoic. Yanliaoa may be one of the ancestors of the living genera of Taxodiaceae. remarkablly the lineal or sublineal ascendant of Sequoia sempervirens. The so-called “Sequoid jeholensis”(Endos. 1951) may be a branchlet of Yanliaoa sinensis.
