  常绿灌木或小乔木,高达10米,小枝无毛,或幼嫩时有微毛。叶簇生于枝顶,二年生,薄革质,倒卵状披针形,稀为倒卵形或矩圆形,长5-12厘米,宽2-4厘米;先端渐尖,或急剧收窄而长尖,基部楔形;上面深绿色,发亮,下面幼时有微毛,不久变秃净;侧脉9-11对,在上面明显,在下面略突起;边缘平展;叶柄长1-1.5厘米,有时更长。伞房花序3-5条生于枝顶叶腋内,长3-4厘米,被微毛,花序柄长1-1.5厘米,花梗长约1厘米,苞片狭窄披针形,长4-6毫米,有微毛;萼片长约2毫米,卵状披针形,有微毛;花瓣长6-8毫米,分离;雄蕊比花瓣略短,有时仅为花瓣的一半;子房卵形,被毛,花柱往往有微毛,侧膜胎座2个,胚珠7-10个。蒴果近圆球形,压扁,直径7-8毫米,2片裂开,果片薄,胎座位于果片下半部;种子7-10个,长约3毫米,种柄极短。
  分布于湖北、湖南、江西、广东、广西、贵州、云南的东南部及西北部、西藏的东南部。
  这是一个分布较广的种,叶形及花和花序均稍有变化。叶通常矩圆状倒披针形,薄革质,但广东标本则常为矩圆形而且硬革质;花通常长7-8毫米,但云南标本亦有长5-6毫米的;蒴果通常短圆形,但广西及贵州某些标本的蒴果呈卵形。此外云南的标本叶面干后暗晦无光,其他各省的标本叶面常发亮。
  P. pauciflorum var. brevicalyx Oliver [P. brevicalyx (Oliv.) Gagnep. 的基名] 所依据的标本是 Henry 采自宜昌和 Maries 采自九江,这个九江标本不属于本种,它是 P. illicioides Mak.。 Gagnepain 发表本种时是根据云南的标本。这个种的根皮供药用,有止咳及治慢性支气管炎的功效。

Two syntypes were cited in the protologue: “Ichang [Yichang], Dr. Henry,” which agrees with P. brevicalyx as currently understood, and “Kiukiang [Jiujiang], Mr. Maries,” which agrees with P. illicioides.
The roots, bark, and capsules can be used medicinally in the treatment of chronic bronchitis and coughs.
