Notes
Field notes and spirit material show that the fruit is much larger in life, e.g. 9-15 by 7-10 mm.
Sterile material of Chloranthus erectus with much more coarsely toothed leaves than usual can be difficult to distinguish, but Sarcandra glabra usually dries with more reddish brown coloured foliage rather than a grey-green colour.
