2. Habenaria, sp. nov. H. peristyloides, 4. R. (Abyssinie) et H. prealte 
Thouars affinis. 
Hab. Ad caeumen Clarence Peak. 
3. Polystachya? 
Hab. Clarence Peak, alt. 6000 ped. 
Epiphytica, species singularis et distinctissima. P. capensi, Sond., et 
Ottoniane, Reichb., habitu similis. 
4. Bolbophyllum, sp. nov.

Epiphytica, B. flavido (Sierra Leone) affine. 
JUNCEX. 
1. Luzula campestris, D. 
Hab. Ad cacumen Clarence Peak, alt. 10,700 ped. (f. Dec.) 
I have seen no other Tropical African specimens of this plant, nor is any 
species of the genus mentioned in Richard’s * Flora of Abyssinia.’ There 
is, however, a very similar plant in South Africa. 
CYPERACEX. 
l. Carex Boryana, Schkuhr. Forma spica depauperata. (Boott.) 
Hab. Clarence Peak, 8500 ped. (fl. Dec.) 
Dr. Boott, who has identitied this and the following for me, observes 
that he has a similar form from Bourbon, of which isle and Abyssinia this 
is a native. 
2. Carex Wahlenbergiana, Boott. Illust. Carex, t. 301. 
Hab. Clarence Peak, alt. 8000 ped. (fl. Dec.) 
Of these specimens Dr. Boott remarks, that it has pale spikes, and 
shorter narrower braets and leaves than the fully developed plants; but 
that he has the same pale spikes and narrow (but longer) leaves in Bour- 
bon specimens. It is also a native of Mauritius. 
3. Kyllingia macrocephala, A. Rich. Flor. Abyss. ii. 491. 
Hab. Clarence Peak, alt. 8500 ped. (fl. Dec.) 
I am very doubtful if this is anything but a form of the ubiquitous 
K. monocephala : the scales are however larger and of a somewhat different 
shape. Stamens 2. 
4. Isolepis trifida: cf. T. pusilla, Hochst., et T. gracillima, Hochst. 
Hab. Ad cacumen Clarence Peak, alt. 10,700 ped.- (fl. Dec.) 
A common Indian plant, extending westward to Abyssinia and Senegal, 
and eastward to China,
