+'''''Acer capillipes''''' ('''Kyushu Maple''' or '''Red Snakebark Maple'''), is a maple in the same [[taxon]]omic section as other [[snakebark maple]]s such as ''[[Acer pensylvanicum|A. pensylvanicum]]'', ''[[Acer davidii|A. davidii]]'' and ''[[Acer rufinerve|A. rufinerve]]''. It is native to mountainous regions in [[Japan]], on central and southern [[Honshū]] ([[Fukushima Prefecture]] southwards), [[Kyūshū]] and [[Shikoku]] islands, usually growing alongside mountain streams.<ref name=kanagawa>Kanagawa Prefecture trees and shrubs: [http://www.geocities.jp/greensv88/jumoku-zz-hosoekaede.htm ''Acer capillipes''] (in Japanese; [http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=ja&u=http://www.geocities.jp/greensv88/jumoku-zz-hosoekaede.htm&sa=X&oi=translate& google translation]).

+[[Image:Acer capillipes (Snakebark maple).jpg|thumb|left|Bark]]
-| growth_habit = deciduous tree
+It is a small [[deciduous]] [[tree]] growing to 10–15 m (rarely to 20 m) tall with a trunk up to 70 cm diameter, though usually smaller and often with multiple trunks, and a spreading crown of long, slender branches. The [[bark]] is smooth, olive-green with regular narrow vertical white stripes and small horizontal brownish [[lenticel]]s; it retains its pattern to the base even on old trees. The [[leaf|leaves]] are 10–15 cm long and 6-12 cm broad, with three or five lobes, the basal lobes of five-lobed leaves being small; they have a serrated margin, conspicuous veining, and a reddish 4–8 cm petiole. They are matt to sub-shiny green in summer, turning to bright yellow, orange or red in the autumn. The [[flower]]s are small, greenish-yellow, produced on 8–10 cm [[raceme]]s in late spring, erect at first but becoming pendulous, with male and female flowers on different racemes. The [[samara (fruit)|samara]] nutlets are 5 mm long, with a 2 cm long wing.<ref name=kanagawa/><ref name=tsukuba/><ref name=gelderen>van Gelderen, C. J. & van Gelderen, D. M. (1999).

-| wide = 20-40 cm trunk diameter
+It can be distinguished from the related ''[[Acer rufinerve]]'', with which it sometimes grows, by the reddish petioles, the hairless or only thinly hairy leaves (contrasting with the rufous hairs on the underside of ''A. rufinerve'' leaves), and in flowering later in spring well after the leaves appear.<ref name=kanagawa/>
