Abstract: As the second part of commenting on some species of the genus Phyllostachys Sieb. et Zucc., eight taxa are dealt with in this paper. Ph.heteroclada Oliver var. funhuaensis Wang et Lu is raised to an independent species, i.e. Ph. funhuaensis (Wang et Lu) Ma et Lai because of its characters which are distinctly different from Ph. heteroclada Oliver. On basis of the field investigations and the examinations of the specimens and literature, the distribution of Ph. angusta McClure and Ph.varioauriculata Li et Wu var. glabrata Lai is revised, and four Latin names, Ph. nidularia Munro f. solida Yang (=Ph.nidularia Munro f. farcta Zhao et Liu), Ph. nigra (Lodd. ex Lindl.) Munro var. stauntonii (Munro)Yang et al. (=Ph. nigra (Lodd.ex Lindl.) Munro var. henonis (Mitf.) Stapf ex Rendle), Ph. sanmingensis Huang et Zheng(=Ph. edulis (Carr.) H.de Lehaie) and Ph. stimulosa Zhao et Liu f. unifoliata Wen (=Ph. nidularia Munro f. glabrovagina Wen) are reduced to synonyms. In addition, Ph. compressa H.Uyeki should be excluded from this genus by its first description.
