Hab. in distr. Darling pr. Serpentine Riv. in silvis apertis arenosis 
subhumosis flor. m. Decembr. (E. Prırzeı Plant. Austr. occ. 438; D. 4879). 
Genus Tetraria (82 species) antehac in Africa Australi tantum nota. Sectio Eu- 
Tetraria a Ders n. 4879 nuce ob stylobasin dilatatam persistenter conico-rostrata 
praecipue differt (C. B. CLARKE). 
Tetrariopsis C. B. Clarke. 
Tetrariopsis oetandra (Nees) C. B. Clarke (B. VIL 377 sub Ely- 
manthus Nees). 
Praeter locos a BeNrHAMIO enumeratos in distr. Darling haud infrequens 
observatur. 
Carpha R. Br. p. (B. VII. 384).

Culmo 5—6 dm longo, tereti, praeter basin enodoso; capite 4, termi- 
nali, 2 cm longo, 9 mm lato, a bracteis 2 circumcluso, paucifloro; bractea

inferiore nudis, in parte superiore cylindrieis, paullo incrassatis, scabris. 
Rhizoma rigidum, lentum. Vaginae inferiores lucide castaneo-bruneae. 
Folia in vaginis superioribus viridia, 4—4 cm longa, rigida, perangusta.

minor. Flores juveniles iis Carphae deustae R. Br. similes. 
Hab. pr. fretum King George Sound in arenosis subhumosis humidis 
flor. m. Mart. (D. 20941). 
Species C. deustae R. Br. affinis, vix similis (C. B. Cuanke). 
Lepidosperma Lab. (B. VII. 384). 
Lepidosperma angustatum R. Br. (B. VIL. 394 exel. synon). —— 
Quae species a nobis observata est compluribus locis distr. Darling, 
Cum in arenosis haud procul a dumis litoralibus (E. Parrze Pl. Austr. 
oce. 267) tum per silvas apertas arenosas Eucalypti marginatae (D. 1482, 
1655, 1799). `
